N. Keita rejected "Barcos" and "Bayern" offers for "Liverpool"

The new "Liverpool" team's midfielder Naby Keita could have not ended up in England.

The player who left the "RB Leipzig" team admitted that he was highly interested in "Barcelona" and Munich's "Bayern" teams. However, the player chose "Liverpool", who paid 48 million pounds for the midfielder.

"It's true that there was interest from "Barcelona" and "Bayern" teams. But a big part of my decision depended on the coach.

We had good conversations. What he said about this project really convinced me. I saw how the team was improving and I also talked with Sadio Mane. He is like a brother to me. We played together for nine months in Salzburg.

We were good friends all the time. He told me what a great club it is and how the team is improving with great potential," N. Keita said.
