RB Leipzig’s Ibrahima Konaté has taken to Twitter to post a tweet involving Liverpool stars Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mané.
The French centre-back is believed to be a target for Jurgen Klopp, according to Bild.
In a separate report from Sport Bild, it is stated that the defender has a €50 million (£45 million) release clause.
Konaté tweet displays an incident from RB Leipzig’s 3-2 win over Manchester United in the Champions League last night.
The 21-year-old gave away a penalty after shoulder barging Mason Greenwood, although in our view, it was a harsh decision.
You can see Konaté’s tweet below for yourself.
In the initial tweet that he’s quoting, a Liverpool supporter makes the point that everyone would’ve been outraged if Salah or Mané had gone down as easily as Greenwood did.
Pep Guardiola has previously called the former Southampton attacker out for diving, as reported by Sky Sports.
More recently, Klopp was left stunned back at the start of November when Salah was accused of diving to win a penalty against West Ham, as Goal covered.
That happened despite the fact Arthur Masuaku clearly fouls him.
If Konaté does eventually end up making the move to Anfield, at least the three of them will have something to talk about!
