Liverpool Newsnow: Midfielder Naby Keita is said to be leaving Liverpool at the conclusion of the season for a move to another Premier League team

Liverpool Newsnow: Reports from Football Insider indicate that Naby Keita will be a free agent come June. Also, Liverpool has chosen not to renew the 27-year-old midfielder’s contract. In 2018, Liverpool paid RB Leipzig £52.7 million to acquire the international player from Guinea. However, due to his chronic injury issues, he has been a huge letdown. Keita is a fine player for Liverpool when healthy. But he has had a rocky time staying healthy throughout his time there.

About the report:

Keita has shown promise in limited playing time since joining Liverpool. He might develop into an elite player for the Reds or any other team. It would be interesting to see whether he is able to overcome his chronic injury issues in the next seasons.

The midfielder has been linked to a return to Germany, as well as an interest from AC Milan. It’s also unclear which club will provide him with a way out. The summer transfer window often sees significant spending by clubs like Liverpool on central midfielders.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and James Milner are also expected to quit the club as free agents, joining Keita. As a result, crucial players like Jordan Henderson and Fabinho have had a rough go of it thus far this year.

Happy birthday to former @LFC man, @takumina0116 🇯🇵

In recent weeks, the Reds’ name has been mentioned in connection with players like Jude Bellingham. To what extent they are able to sign the Borussia Dortmund star at the conclusion of the season remains to be seen. Liverpool has had a poor season so far and is fighting an uphill battle to make it into the UEFA Champions League.

When it comes to Keita, the player has overcome his injury issues this season. It remains to be seen whether he can maintain his fitness level and lead Liverpool to a successful season finale. The midfielder has had little action this season, with just four Premier League outings coming off the bench.

What will Liverpool do now?

Since the beginning of the season, Liverpool’s central midfield has been a big area of worry. And if Keita can maintain his fitness over the next several months, the Reds will undoubtedly improve upon their previous showings.

Jürgen Klopp is having a rough time at Liverpool right now. The German manager has been a legend at the club for quite some time. But this season has been the toughest he has faced since he first arrived at Anfield.

Liverpool dropped to eighth after a 3-0 loss to Brighton. Some have drawn comparisons to Klopp’s last season at Borussia Dortmund when he opted to leave after realizing he wasn’t the guy to turn things around. At the time, his team was in a relegation battle, so things aren’t dire at Anfield just yet, but anxiety is rising.
