I don't think he wants to go. Worry is that with Neymar gone he knows he'll start and that may well turn his head.
Rumour is Barca got the message and have moved on to Dembele (the Dortmund one). But thats just a rumour at the mo.
Naby Keita unlikely to sign new RB Leipzig contract as Liverpool look to trigger £48m release clause next summer
Leipzig have managed to keep Keita for another year but sporting director Ralf Rangnick isn't confident of a long-term stay

Yeah brutal.
Sat there with my gob hanging open
If only there was a thread for this
RB Leipzig sporting director Ralf Rangnick admits it’s unlikely that Liverpool transfer target Naby Keita will sign a new contract.
The Bundesliga outfit are keen to give the Guinea midfielder improved terms after wrecking his hopes of moving to Anfield.
Keita’s current deal runs until 2020 and Leipzig want him to pen an extension that removes the £48million release clause which kicks in next summer.

So he's basically saying that he's prepared to let his asset depreciate massively in one year. Crazy.
