On Monday afternoon, Manchester United confirmed the signing of Isaac Konde from Liverpool. So, who is he, and should Liverpool supporters be up in arms about this news?

Born and raised on Merseyside, he joined Liverpool as a nine year old in 2018 and is described by Mitten as a "rapid attacking player". Konde saw his first minutes for Liverpool's under-18s last season, featuring six times in the Professional U18 Development League, of which only two were starts.

Set to celebrate his 17th birthday next month, Konde has signed a one-year scholarship at Manchester United, before putting pen to paper on a first-ever professional contract next summer. From a Liverpool perspective, only time will tell if this is a major transfer window faux pas, or if we never hear Konde's name again.
