3) Naby Keita - £52.75 million
Bought from - RB Leipzig
Year- 2018
Manager In Charge - Jurgen Klopp
Naby Keita will be wearing the legendary #8 jersey for Liverpool. In Keita, they think they have found a worthy successor of club icon and legend Steven Gerrard. It's been quite a saga, as Liverpool wanted him last season, but Leipzig would not let go of Keita so easily.
Keita is a flashy, exciting and an immensely talented midfielder. He is the "can do it all" type of a player who can score from 30 yards, pass a beautiful through ball to set up a goal or even play the role of a holding midfielder.
The Guinea international likes to boss things when he's on the ball and is very creative. With Fabinho in the team to fill in the spot of the holding midfielder, Keita has 1 job - to wreak havoc in the attacking 3rd of the field with Salah, Firmino, and Mane.
