Olympique Marseille v RB Leipzig - UEFA Europa League Quarter Final Leg Two
Naby Keita will join Liverpool on July 1.

Though the Guinean international currently plays for the Bundesliga club, RB Leipzig, he will join Premier League club Liverpool on July 1 as he agreed for the same a season in advance.

Keita is a dynamic, box-to-box central midfielder who is able to distribute the ball with range and accuracy. He was among RB Leipzig's top performers when they finished 2nd in the 2016-17 season and contributed eight goals and eight assists to the team.

However, RB Leipzig struggled last season and finished sixth in the Bundesliga. Nevertheless, Naby Keita remains their best performer, scoring six goals and providing five assists in 27 games.

He impressed with his performances in the Champions League and Europa League and was included in the Europa League Team of the Season 2017-18.

The Guinean international is about to take the big step in his career and could become one of the top midfielders in Europe in the coming years under the guidance of Jurgen Klopp.
