Ibrahima Konate - Taken off with injury Konate was forced off the field in Saturday's 2-1 loss to Chelsea due to an apparent injury, according to manager Arne Slot. "I don't know if it is a big injury, but what I do know... Impact Koante had to leave the field early Saturday, and it has now been confirmed to be due to an injury, only lasting 56 minutes in the outing. He will now have two weeks to recover with no game due to the international break, coming at a decent time for the defender. He will then look to be fit against Manchester United when they return on Oct. 19, with Joe Gomez as a possible replacement in the defense.
