EPL: Liverpool suffer fresh injury blow ahead of Man City clash

Liverpool are sweating on Ibrahima Konate’s fitness ahead of Sunday’s Premier League clash against Manchester City.

Jurgen Klopp is already set to be without Trent Alexander-Arnold and Joel Matip in defence.

Konate enjoyed an impressive first season at Anfield following his move from RB Leipzig.

He made his first start of the campaign as they beat Rangers 7-1 in the Champions League in midweek.

According to The Athletic, the France international picked up a muscle injury against the Scottish side and is unlikely to be risked against the champions.

Liverpool are already 13 points behind City going into the showdown.
