Liverpool 'prepare Naby Keita swap deal' for £30m-rated midfielder

Liverpool are preparing a 'swap deal' with Inter Milan for Marcelo Brozovic that would include Naby Keita departing the club, according to reports in Italy.

The Reds have been increasingly linked with reinforcements in midfield as their dismal start to 2023 continued against Brighton last weekend. Jurgen Klopp's side did bounce back, however, with an FA Cup third-round replay win at Wolves on Tuesday in which young midfielder Stefan Bajcetic starred.

The recalled Keita also impressed. The Guinea international has been plagued by injuries in recent seasons, which have severely hampered his development at Liverpool. Keita was signed from RB Leipzig amid great fanfare and while he has shown flashes of his true potential, overall he has failed to live up to his price tag.
