RB Leipzig talented player Naby Keita was heavily linked with a move away from the German club after emerging as a target for Liverpool during the past summer transfer window, but the Bundesliga club did not allow him to leave the club.

However, Liverpool were able to agree on a deal worth £48M including other add-ons that will bring the player down to Anfield next summer. The reds are said to have sealed the deal with a total fee of €70million.

However, there are new reports that the Guinea international does not want to wait for next summer, but desiring moving to Anfield this January.

According to the Express, his reps are ready to push for the move when he gets back to training in January.

The 22-year-old is a superb and strong youngster who played a big role helping Leipzig earned a Champions League ticket for this season. He scored eight goals and provided eight assists for the Bundesliga club last term.

He is a versatile midfielder who can effectively play anywhere in the midfield. However, the German side failed to qualify for the final-16 of the Champions League and are now settling for the Europa League.

This season so far in 20 games, the African star has scored five goals and has provided one assist to his teammates at Leipzig.
