Liverpool debate: Naby Keita transfer question asked as contract call arrives

Naby Keita was Liverpool's match-winner against Newcastle United on Saturday as the Reds picked up a 1-0 victory to keep the pace with Man City in the Premier League title-race.

The Guinean has been in impressive form this season and has stayed relatively injury-free as Jurgen Klopp's side chase an unprecedented quadruple, with the German's management of his midfield options no doubt aiding the 27-year-old as he looks to prove his worth at Anfield once and for all.

A £52.75m signing from RB Leipzig in the summer of 2018, Keita has helped Liverpool win the Premier League, Champions League, FIFA Club World Cup, European Super Cup and League Cup during his time with the Reds, and will be hoping to add to that tally in the weeks ahead. However, his time on Merseyside has been plagued by recurring injury problems and inconsistent form, with even the midfielder himself admitting Kopites are yet to witness the real Naby Keita.
