Klopp confirms Keita is fit to face Brighton

Jurgen Klopp has confirmed that Naby Keita has been passed fit to face Brighton this weekend.

As reported by Ian Doyle, the Liverpool boss told the media this afternoon that the Guinean midfielder will be ready to face Graham Potter’s side on Saturday.

Keita’s availability will be a huge boost to Jurgen Klopp after his recent injury troubles this season.

His importance to the squad has become even greater after it was confirmed Fabinho would not play again this season.

The last thing Jurgen Klopp needs right now is more injury concerns, so to see everybody else passed fit will come as a huge relief to the manager.

It’s an opportunity for him to showcase his true potential as a Liverpool player if he does start against Brighton.

Keita arrived at Anfield with huge expectations, but he’s yet to really show his best form in the Premier League.

For the first time in his Liverpool career, there will be a serious amount of pressure on him to deliver as the club enter a key period of the season.
