Liverpool look set to land long-term target Naby Keita from Red Bull Leipzig in a deal that will see the midfielder stay in the Bundesliga until next summer.

Reports in Germany and England have claimed the transfer has been agreed, and that Liverpool will pay a premium on top of a £48 million buy-out clause which comes into effect next year to bring the Guinea international to Anfield.

According to German newspaper Bild, Liverpool will pay £69.4 million should Leipzig qualify for next season’s Champions League, £64.8 million if Leipzig secure a Europa League place, or £60.2 million should they fail to earn a place in Europe.

Reports have claimed the 22-year-old has already undergone a medical with the Merseysiders and will officially sign on July 1, 2018.

The video below takes a closer look at the midfielder.
