Liverpool have abandoned all interest in RB Leipzig midfielder Naby Keita this summer, writes @DominicKing_DM
The Reds have accepted that RB Leipzig are unwilling to do business, and Liverpool are now actively pursuing other targets. (Dominic King)
The only way a transfer could be resurrected for Keita before the end of August would be if Leipzig performed a U-turn. (Dominic King)
Given Keita has a release clause which can be activated next summer, it is highly likely he will move to Anfield then. (Dominic King)
It will nonetheless come as a blow to Keita, who had his heart set on playing for Klopp in the Champions League this season. (Dominic King)
