RB Leipzig midfielder Naby Keita is delighted with his move to Liverpool.

The Reds have confirmed that the Guinea international will join on July 1 2018 after a deal was sealed with the Bundesliga outfit.

“I am delighted that an agreement has been reached which will allow me to join Liverpool Football Club next summer, when I will become part of a project that excites me greatly," he said.

“My commitment to RBL remains absolute for the remainder of my time at the club. I have given my all every time I have worn the shirt – that will be the case until the final whistle, in my final appearance.

“Having my future resolved means I can now focus on helping RBL achieve great things this season. Until I join my new club, next summer, I will remain an interested supporter from a distance."
