"Leipzig" team owner Dietrich Mateschitz confirmed the information that his team received an impressive offer for the safety of Naby Keita.
According to the German, it was not difficult for him to decide whether to agree to the confirmation of the 75 million euro deal.
"We received exactly that amount and immediately rejected it.
Keita has a contract with the club and we will fulfill it.
We cannot sell this player both because of the fans, and because of the negative sign for players like Timo Werner, who are desired by other teams," Mateschitz told the "Bild" newspaper.
Last season in the Bundesliga, Keita scored 8 goals and made 7 assists in 31 matches. "
