According to a recent report from Bild, Naby Keita could be on the verge of leaving Liverpool in favour of a return to the Bundesliga.
Back in 2018, Naby Keita made his way over to Anfield following a two-year stint with Leipzig. While he’s lifted a few trophies as part of the furniture with the Reds, he hasn’t been able to have many extended runs in the middle of the park.
That’s largely been down to injuries but even when he’s been fully fit, he still hasn’t lived up to the hype that surrounded him when he initially arrived.
In terms of where he could end up, Leipzig are interested in the idea of possibly bringing him back with Borussia Dortmund also showing interest.
Ironically enough, the two clubs will square off this weekend, whereas Keit…

Icardi scored the only goal as PSG booked their place in the Champions League s last 16, although they were also grateful to goalkeeper Keylor Navas for a late penalty save.
But on-loan striker Icardi was dealing with an issue as he made way for Edinson Cavani, Tuchel announced after the match.
The Inter man did not appear to be in any obvious discomfort but has been playing with pain for some time, according to his coach.
It was the plan to change it after 65, 70 minutes. Then Mauro was injured and it was absolutely necessary [to bring on Cavani], Tuchel told RMC Sport.

Sergio Aguero has raised the prospect that he could yet return to play football, albeit as an amateur rather than a professional.
The Argentine was forced to retire last year, months after leaving Manchester City for Barcelona on a free transfer, due to heart issues.
But after a lengthy career that saw him celebrate great success with the Premier League champions and reach a World Cup final with La Albiceleste, the 33-year-old still has the hunger to play.
However, Aguero stressed any return would not be at the top level, hinting that his passion would see him merely play for fun.
Yesterday [on Tuesday], it crossed my mind that I could play football again, Aguero told TyC Sports.
The doctors told me that I have to spend five or six months …
