Jürgen Klopp Criticizes Didier Deschamps’ Handling of Ibrahima Konaté During International Break

The international break did not please Jürgen Klopp. The reason ? According to the Liverpool coach, Ibrahima Konaté played too much with the France team and came back tired. The German therefore left him to rest this evening during the reception of Toulouse in the Europa League (5-1), in order to preserve him for this weekend’s meeting against Nottingham Forest. He took the opportunity to tackle Didier Deschamps and his management of the central defender since he played in the Blues’ two matches against the Netherlands and against Scotland.

“He’s not in the squad tonight but I absolutely love everything about Ibou. The problem is that he had several injuries and Mr. Deschamps made him play 90 and 87 minutes in the last two matches, so we left him to rest. He could have played tonight but he also has to play on Sunday… So Mr. Deschamps, that’s how we rest the players, not for three minutes… But apart from that, we are more than happy with Ibou. He’s a fantastic boy and a great player, and France might be happy to have him.”concludes the coach on RMC Sport.
