After finally arriving at Anfield this summer in a deal that was finalized almost a year ago, Naby Keita was handed over the legendary Number 8 shirt and was probably expected to take the Premier League by storm by the fans.
But fast forward 8 months, the Guinean looks nowhere close to the form he showed at Leipzig and finds himself on the fringes of Klopp’s system at the moment.
While his overall game hasn’t impressed too many, the diminutive midfielder has given fans glimpses of his immense potential from time to time.
Supporters loved his sublime skills against Wolves earlier this month and the 23-year-old turned up the style once again during the preparations against Leicester City with this smooth bit of skill.
Makes it look so easy! Check out the brilliant back control from Keita here, the moment comes around the 04.20 mark in the video below:
