# Liverpool: Fans react to Naby Keita exit rumour

**A number of Liverpool supporters have reacted negatively to a rumour claiming that Naby Keita is wanted by several top clubs, calling for him to stay put at Anfield.\**

The Guinean has suffered a hugely frustrating Reds career to date, having arrived from RB Leipzig in 2018 with a big reputation.

Keita has continually struggled to stay fit in his time on Merseyside and [persistent injuries](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/naby-keita/verletzungen/spieler/302215) have limited him to just [92 Reds appearances](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/naby-keita/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/302215/verein/31), even though this is now his fourth season at the club.

The midfielder is a classy player when fit and available, with an [exceptional performance](https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1511030/liverpool-news-naby-keita-man-utd-old-trafford-premier-league-ole-gunnar-solskjaer) in the 5-0 win away to Manchester United this season proof of that.

According to [El Nacional](https://www.elnacional.cat/ca/esports/klopp-no-ho-vol-al-liverpool-i-el-barca-de-xavi-hernandez-es-el-mes-ben-col-locat-per-emportar-se-l_690191_102.html) \[via [LFC Transfer Room](https://twitter.com/LFCTransferRoom/status/1478064149938778117?s=20) on Twitter\], Barcelona, Bayern Munich, West Ham, AC Milan and Roma are all eyeing up a summer move for Keita, whose current Liverpool deal [expires](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/naby-keita/profil/spieler/302215) next year.
