Gabriele Marcotti names three factors that could stop Liverpool signing Naby Keita The ESPN reporter lifts the lid on three factors that could prevent Liverpool from completing a deal to sign Naby Keita Gabriele Marcotti has revealed three factors that Liverpool fans must consider in their club’s pursuit of RB Leipzig midfielder Naby Keita. The Reds have been linked with a big-money move to sign the 22-year-old box-to-box midfielder in the 2017 summer transfer window. Jurgen Klopp is thought to be keen to improve his central midfield options ahead of a return to the Champions League next season. The Merseyside outfit are thought to be willing to spend a club-record fee on Keita, although Marcotti doesn’t expect Liverpool to match RB Leipzig’s £70m price tag. Indeed, the ESPN journalist believes there are three factors to consider when evaluating whether Keita will secure a move to Liverpool before the start of the 2017-18 season. Marcotti tweeted: “Other factors to consider: “1. Leipzig have a ton of money. So less pressure to sell and could give Keita improved deal. “2. How bad does Keita want a move? Is he willing to force a sale? “3. LFC have other areas to strengthen too. Spending patterns suggest they’ll want to sell too. Can they get their other stuff done at numbers with which they’re comfortable?” Keita moved to RB Leipzig in a £12.75m deal from Austrian side Red Bull Salzburg in the 2016 summer transfer window. The Guinea international scored eight times and made nine assists in 31 games in the Bundesliga last term. Liverpool have already signed Chelsea forward Dominic Solanke and AS Roma winger Mohamed Salah.

Why Liverpool Boss Vetoed The Transfer Of Talented Nigerian Winger To Newcastle United Published: July 02, 2017 please log in to view this image Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp temporarily vetoed the transfer of England U20 international of Nigerian descent Sheyi Ojo in the summer transfer window. Another Premier League club Burnley and Championship outfit Middlesbrough were also pushing to sign the exciting winger on a season-long loan deal. The Liverpool Echo says Klopp wants to assess Ojo when he returns for pre-season training before making a decision on whether or not to send him out on loan for the third time in his career. The 20-year-old previously enjoyed successful loan spells with Wigan Athletic and Wolverhampton Wanderers. Sheyi Ojo has contractual obligations with the Anfield club until the end of the 2019-2020 season
It seem ox if following the aidy ward model to the letter. Someone will pick him up and that agent will make a killing... again. If he is within a mile of any young player imo that player needs serious warning that they won't get any chance if he's their agent.
Looks Ox could be a strong possibility after rejecting the contract - anything less than £20m would be really good IMO.
Ox wants to play in CM, I am not sure Klopp is going to promise him that. Everyone wants that position, Can and Milner to mention a few.
I read about it a couple of weeks ago tbf..then with all the talk of 70m etc...i did post something similar then...offer kyst above it to show the player hes wanted but why pay 70m now if his release clause happens next year...if someone else wants to pay 70m now fair enough
