FULL STORY: Hasenhuttl tells Liverpool to forget about Keita

omoha rehoboth: Red Bull Leipzig manager Ralph Hasenhuttl has told Liverpool to forget about signing Naby Keita.

The 22-year-old midfielder is a priority target for Jurgen Klopp, but the German is ready to drop his interest in the Guinean with the German club staunch in their determination to keep Keita.

The Bundesliga side have rejected two offers from Liverpool, the latest a package worth £66million.

And Hasenhuttl has told Liverpool to give up the chase for Keita once and for all.

‘The chance (of Keita signing for Liverpool) is ‘nul’,’ said the RB Leipzig coach.

‘It’s 100 per cent clear that Naby will play this year in Leipzig. For us, everyone can see how important Naby Keita is for our game. It’s 100 per cent sure that he will be with RB Leipzig in the Champions League.’

And Hasenhuttl has warned Liverpool that they could miss out on Keita if, as expected, they launch another bid to sign him next summer.

It is understood Keita will be available for £48million next summer due to a release clause.

‘They will not be the only one I think. Until next summer we keep it (the door) closed and then we have a look,’ added Hasenhuttl.
