New Naby Keita suitor steps forward with Liverpool misfit ready to make free transfer

AC Milan are set to step up their interest in Naby Keita in a bid to lure the midfielder on a free from Liverpool this summer.

The Guinea international, 27, looks set to leave Anfield in a shake-up and is available on a Bosman as his contract is up. Italian giants AC Milan are keen despite the ace only showing glimpses of the player Liverpool signed from RB Leipzig in 2018 for £51.6million, which was a club record fee at the time.

Keita is now able to negotiate a pre-contract agreement with foreign clubs from last month onwards. Jurgen Klopp is unlikely to stand in his way as the ace has struggled with injuries in England, where he took Steven Gerrard’s vacant No.8 shirt upon his arrival.
