Liverpool defender Konate explains what he'll bring to Klopp's side & reveals his nickname

The Reds have invested heavily in the talented French defender, and he believes the Premier League will be perfect for him

Ibrahima Konate has been discussing the qualities that he will offer to Liverpool in 2021-22 and revealed what his nickname will be at Anfield.

The highly-rated 22-year-old has completed a £36 million ($50m) move to Merseyside from RB Leipzig and is expected to slot straight into Jurgen Klopp's side after inheriting the No.5 shirt from Georginio Wijnaldum.

A place alongside Virgil van Dijk could be taken up at the heart of the Reds' back four, with the no-nonsense Frenchman confident that he can pass any Premier League test.
