Konate wants to be one of club's highest earners

Ibrahima Konate wants a significant pay rise to make him one of the highest earners in Liverpool’s squad,” a report reads.

“The 25-year-old wants his deal with the Reds to recognise his level as one of the best defenders in the Premier League.”

Van Dijk and Mohamed Salah are earning a reported £400k per week - but there is little prospect of Konate reaching parity with those two.

The next biggest earners in the squad are Alisson Becker (a reported £210k per week) and Alexander-Arnold (£180k per week).

Konate’s demands would therefore probably bring him in line with Alisson and much further ahead than other first-team stars like Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai and Andy Robertson.
