Liverpool are ready to test RB Leipzig’s resolve once more with an improved offer for Naby Keita.
The Reds’ pursuit of the enigmatic midfielder has been well documented in recent times, and Paul Joyce writes for the Times that a second, more lucrative bid is set to be lodged.
Leipzig have publicly insisted that their prized asset is not for sale this summer, but there have been indications that an improved offer from Liverpool could be enough to force the Bundesliga outfit’s hand.
The opening proposal made by Liverpool was worth around £57m, but was inevitably turned down by Leipzig as they look to hang on to their star man.
Keita enjoyed a hugely successful campaign last term, and caught the eye of many top clubs across Europe.
It’s stated by Joyce that Keita could very well hand in a transfer request in the near future, with the Guinean midfielder’s heart set on a move to Anfield.
