Liverpool faces injury concerns for defender Ibrahima Konate ahead of Manchester City match

Liverpool is concerned about the fitness of defender Ibrahima Konate ahead of their match against Manchester City on Sunday. Konate and teammate Conor Bradley both left the field injured after a recent Champions League win over Real Madrid. Konate's knee injury is particularly troubling, as he has been a key player in a defense that has allowed only eight goals in 12 Premier League matches. Trent Alexander-Arnold is expected to return from injury for the upcoming game. Manager Arne Slot noted that both players are still being assessed. Liverpool has managed a strong record despite injuries to several key players this season.
