Liverpool to bid £70m for Keita

Liverpool will make a stunning £70 million bid for No.1 target Naby Keita , reports the Mirror.

The Reds are pursuing the RB Leipzig general and believe he could be the final piece in Jurgen Klopp's jigsaw ahead of a return to the Champions League.

A £57m offer has been rejected by the Bundesliga side, with Ralph Hasenhüttl keen to keep the Guinean for their own assault on Europe's top competition.

Inter Milan are also reportedly keen to enter the bidding and could trump any offer from the Reds by offering the 22-year-old back on loan for a season.
