Ibrahima Konate has not had the best of seasons so far, but he can be more than happy with his efforts against Real. There has been much speculation about the Frenchman’s future, with his contract set to expire at the end of the season, and the distinct possibility that he could be following in Alexander-Arnold’s footsteps soon.

Like Konate, Andy Robertson’s contract is set to run out next summer. Andy Robertson's contract is set to expire next summer (Image: Getty Images) With Kerkez struggling to find his feet, Robertson has been the perfect man to call upon over the last couple of games.

Robertson is far from done at the top level, and it feels like it would be far too premature if he was allowed to leave next summer. Kerkez will still be Liverpool’s left-back in the long-term - assuming he is eventually able to find his feet - but having Robertson alongside allows the Reds to give the 21-year-old more time to bed himself in.
