Liverpool have been struggling to agree on a deal with RB Leipzig all summer for their highly rated central midfielder Naby Keita. The Reds have made two very generous bids for the Guinean international but have seen both turned down, they’ve now tabled a third ‘take it or leave it’ bid, and should that offer be rejected, here are five players Liverpool can sign instead of Keita.
3Julian Weigl, Borussia Dortmund
At just 21 years old the German has a long way to go in the game. He is one for the future but is already proving he is a player for the present having made 27 starts in Bundesliga last season.
Weigl likes to shoot from a distance and possesses the ability to spot a pass from deep. He is no slouch in the air either and thus, would provide Liverpool with another option from set pieces.
