'I hardly see a superior club': Konate claims he would like to finish his career at Liverpool

"When you arrive at Anfield, you discover a different energy," Ibrahima Konate told Onze Mondial, as per the Liverpool Echo. "It's an incredible feeling. I have listened to many testimonies.

"One day, Thierry Henry said on television that he would have liked to play in Liverpool. Arsene Wenger and many other great managers have said that Anfield is an extraordinary stadium. I live it as a player, it's real.

"Today I am at Liverpool, and the truth is, I hardly see a superior club. When you are here, you have everything: a great club, a great history, always in the running to win the Champions League, the Premier League and all the trophies with magnificent supporters.

"I'm 23 and it's a club where I could end my career. This club is among the top three clubs in the world. But you also need quality to finish your career here!"

Konate joined Liverpool last summer and has become an important part of the team, if not a regular starter.

As the centre-back says himself, it's a bit too early for him to be thinking about which club he wants to finish his career with. Still, it's pleasant to know that his ambition is to spend his peak years at Anfield.
