# Bayern and Dortmund hold talks over Keita deal

Liverpool are ready to sell midfielder Naby Keita at the end of the season, with Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich keen on his signature.

[According to TeamTalk,](https://www.teamtalk.com/news/exclusive-liverpool-consider-selling-midfielder-for-10m-loss) Liverpool have already decided that they are prepared to move Keita on in the summer after a troubled first year at the club.

Keita joined Liverpool from RB Leipzig for £50m last summer, but has failed to establish himself in Jurgen Klopp’s starting line-up this season.

The central midfielder was impressive in the Bundesliga at Leipzig and is now attracting interest from German giants Dortmund and Bayern.

The report claims that the pair are already in talks with Keita’s representatives as they look to secure a deal in the next transfer window.

Liverpool are said to be willing to part ways with £10m on the transfer, meaning that they would accept a fee in the region of £40m for his services if Dortmund or Bayern made a concrete offer.
