Naby Keita: Wanted by duo

Liverpool star Sadio Mane has been pictured with one of the club’s top transfer targets during the off-season.

The image of Mane alongside RB Leipzig star Naby Keita appeared on Instagram, although the fact the pair of them are together is not that surprising given that they belong to the same agency.

Liverpool fans, however, will have been hoping that Mane was having a word in the 22-year-old midfielder’s ear as the Reds continue to be linked with the player.

Keita was on the Bundesliga’s outstanding performers last season and has been linked with a £50m switch to Anfield.

Leipzig, however, are determined to keep hold of the player as they prepare for Champions League football next season.
