Liverpool's Defensive Woes Deepen as Ibrahima Konate Suffers Injury

Liverpool's defensive depth is being tested as centre-back Ibrahima Konate is a doubt for their upcoming game against Newcastle United. Konate's importance has escalated since Liverpool's tactical switch to a 3-4-3 formation, where he has to defend a large space as a centre-back and stand-in right-back. With Joe Gomez and Joel Matip as the only senior centre-back options, their form, consistency, and injury records raise concerns. Liverpool's preference for a young left-sided defender limits their options in the transfer market. The club's past defensive struggles and reliance on midfielders as makeshift defenders have left fans worried. The signing of Wataru Endo adds another unknown element to Liverpool's defensive rearguard.
