Naby Keita to hold talks with RB Leipzig to force Liverpool move

Liverpool transfer target Naby Kieta is set to hold talks with his side RB RB Leipzig to force through a transfer to Anfield.

According to the Daily Mail, RB Leipzig have held firm on their belief that the player should remain with the club amid transfer rumours linking the 22-year-old to a move to Merseyside. The Bundesliga runners-up have even slapped a £70m price tag on the midfielder to keep interested parties at bay in their pursuit of the player.
Leipzig sporting director Ralf Rangnick said: 'We will definitely not be letting any key players go. There's nothing that will make us budge.'

The problem facing the club is that their number 8 is understood to want a move away.
Reds manager Jürgen Klopp is no stranger to the Bundesliga, having been manager a Borussia Dortmund. He would know that capabilities of the players there, and the knowledge on whether their skills would be transferrable in the Premier League.
