Naby Keita is set to miss his Liverpool farewell this weekend against Southampton as the midfielder has not recovered in time from an unknown injury. Keita has not featured in a Jurgen Klopp squad since the Merseyside club’s mid-March defeat at Real Madrid as a result of an unspecified muscle issue. The situation is a strange one as Klopp mentioned a possible return in late April but Keita has not been seen in training since. The German coach also didn’t mention the midfielder during an injury update at his Friday press conference ahead of this weekend’s game, which increases the mysteriousness of the situation. Naby Keita to miss Liverpool farewell This sums up Keita’s time at Anfield as it was never able to get going due to constant fitness issues.
Nevertheless, Keita will be given a nice send-off by the Liverpool fans on Sunday should he attend the game.
