Naby Keita has taken a massive pay-cut to join Werder Bremen.

The Guinea midfielder is leaving Liverpool for Werder as his contract expires at the end of this month.

Keita said: "I'm really excited for my new challenge here in Bremen.

"I was impressed by what the club told me about the setup here and Werder's style of play. The coach gave me a really good feeling and showed how I can help the team."

The Daily Mail says Keita has taken a 75 per cent cut on his £120,000-a-week Liverpool wages.
