​Liverpool to make FINAL bid for RB Leipzig midfielder Keita

Liverpool are preparing to launch their final bid for RB Leipzig midfielder Naby Keita.

The Mirror reports that the Reds will offer the Bundesliga club £70m for the Guinean.

Liverpool have already failed with two bids for the 22-year old, the latest of which was worth £66m.

Keita is said to outraged with Leipzig sporting director Ralf Rangnick's comments that 'a whole village in Guinea' has turned his head towards a move to Anfield and is now pushing even harder for an exit.

Jurgen Klopp is desperate to sign the box-to-box midfielder, but has lined up Schalke playmaker Leon Goretzka, if the move for Keita falls through.
