Liverpool signing Ibrahima Konate is confident forcing his way into manager Jurgen Klopp's plans.

The defender is currently in Austria with the rest of Liverpool's squad.

Konate told the club's website: "We (Klopp) spoke before my signature, but this will stay between us. Yes, I know I am very young but this is not important – I have to improve on the pitch and to work. If I am good, for the rest it is not important.

"Yes, I am very happy to be here with the team. My first impressions, I am very happy because I work with great players and I know I will [improve] here and I will be better with time. I'm very happy because we work together, everybody is happy and this is good."
