Konate says new Liverpool deal is close
Ibrahima Konate says he expects to stay at Liverpool beyond this season.
The defenderās contract runs out this summer but speaking after Liverpoolās win over Everton, the Frenchman says an agreement on a new deal is close.
āTo be fair, there are many things people have said but for a long time we have spoken with the club and we are close to an agreement,ā he said. āI think everyone wished for that for as long as possible but we are in a good way.
āFor sure there is a big chance Iām here next season. This is what I always wanted. Iām waiting to sort the contract but when everything is sorted you will have to ask [Liverpool sporting director] Richard [Hughes] what I said to him in September, November and heās going to say something to make everyone quiet.
āYes [contract talks have taken a long time] but this is negotiation. With Virgil [van Dijk] and Mo [Salah] last season it was exactly the same, I think they signed the contract in April and this is maybe how the club want it.ā

Reflecting on his and Liverpoolās season so far, Konate says he is optimistic for the future.
āIt was a tough year because many things happened and I think if everyone knew exactly what happened to me, they could understand many things, which kind of sacrifices Iāve done for this club,ā he said.
āI think it is great and one day I will take the time to think about it. Right now I am focused on the end of the season and making sure we are qualified for the Champions League next season and after we take the time to talk about this season because itās going to be a big part of my story.
āItās sad in one part, but itās very nice for my story when I explain that to my future kids and those people who support this club as well.ā
