“We will definitely not be letting any key players go,” RB Leipzig sporting director Ralf Rangnick said at a press conference last week. “There’s nothing that will make us budge.”
Keita was instrumental in leading Leipzig to a surprise second-place finish in the Bundesliga last term, qualifying the club for the Champions League.
Jurgen Klopp has made the Guinea international Liverpool’s top transfer target this summer, but has so far been rebuffed in his efforts.
Roma winger Mohamed Salah and Chelsea attacker Dominic Solanke are Liverpool’s only transfer additions so far this summer, with the club looking to strengthen further ahead of a Champions League campaign in 2017-18.
