Konaté Reveals Personal Struggles After Tragedy

France defender Ibrahima Konaté has opened up about the personal turmoil that affected his form this year, following the death of his former Liverpool teammate Diogo Jota and later his father. The 27-year-old international admitted that depression is deeply personal, saying 'Depression is personal; it's deep inside you.'

The France defender's form was visibly impacted throughout the season, but it became apparent to many in January when his father, Hamady, died after a long illness. Konaté has now spoken publicly about the emotional challenges he faced during this difficult period. chickenroad.qpon
