I wanNaby (Under the sea in an Octopus's Garden in the Shade) - Deal Confirmed

RB Leipzig have told sky sports news Keita will not be sold this summer.

I love this campsite. But Im starting to think we have fucked up and should have all been in the Vandijculous thread.
 
This is a single excec rather than 'the club'. The Firm said this coming week. Chill guys. This guy is talking about the last offer. Sky are fucking shit.

First the sporting director,then the owner & head coach,now a 'senior official',RBL seem to be running out of options to get a mouthpiece to tell the media,
next Keita's parents or his bird?
 
Only a few more days for this one to happen I feel, I have a dentist appointment Wednesday, happy to miss it if things start picking up, the tooth only hurts when I eat, drink or breathe, and I found a field of cloves the other day, so alls good, but no progress by Tuesday evening and I'm packing the fuck up, having this cunt pulled out my jaw, then head to camp Dyke.
 
Only way this is happening is if Keita does a VvD style not playing for you style protest.

He'd get away with it by saying £75m is a fair bid given his buyout clause is €48m. And that Leipzig are forcing him out of a dream move.
 
Keita has just followed Firmino and Mane on Twitter.
It means nothing ...
But if it really means nothing, it's because FIrmino is a flabby melt and Mane and him share agents.
 
Telegraph claiming we are planning to shelve plans to bring in Keita until next season (mentioned about the release clause that will come into effect - but didn't RB deny this?). Doesn't bore well (see: Dahoud, Pulisic, Brandt)

[article]Liverpool are increasingly pessimistic about their chances of signing RB Leipzig midfielder Naby Keita this summer and are ready to shelve their interest until next year.

After seeing successive bids rejected for the 22-year-old Guinea international, Liverpool do not intend to increase their last offer of £66 million.

Instead – unless there is major u-turn from the Bundesliga side and willingness to re-open negotiations – Liverpool will return in 12 months time by which time Keita’s exit clause of £48 million will change the landscape.


Leipzig have never shifted position since Liverpool made their official moves for the player, with respective bids of £57 million and £66 million. Jurgen Klopp would have broken a club transfer record by £30 million had the last offer been accepted, but the rebuttal of such a staggering sum underlined the Germans were not bluffing with the public statements insisting there would be no sale.

The Keita stalemate will be a source of frustration for Klopp and present him with a dilemma. He has made it clear he does not want to compromise the quality of his targets and Keita was the man he wanted most to improve his midfield options.

But Leipzig’s position mirrors Liverpool’s with regards Philippe Coutinho and Barcelona. If Klopp is to pursue an alternative – albeit reluctantly – he will want to make moves sooner rather than later as the Champions League qualifier is just three weeks away.

Klopp will be confident of winning the race for Keita eventually for a lot less than on offer now. The player has said nothing since Liverpool’s offers were made public, but the Merseysiders will feel in pole position should the midfielder decide to leave after another year at Leipzig.

Barcelona, meanwhile, have made it clear they are planning another move for Coutinho. It won’t break Liverpool’s resolve.

Klopp met his star player over the weekend and told him he won’t be leaving this summer. Coutinho’s professional response just hours later – when he scored a brilliant winning goal in a dazzling first-half performance against Leicester City in the Asia Cup – demonstrated that while the 25 year-old will obviously be flattered by La Liga interest, it promises to have little impact on his form.

It is not only Coutinho’s future that is the subject of interest. Reports in Italy suggest Emre Can’s representatives have been negotiating with Juventus and a £30 million bid is imminent.

Can has only a year left on his Liverpool contract and talks have been at stalemate for months.

“You can imagine we're involved in talks and we all feel good and confident in this moment,” Klopp said in an interview with The Liverpool Echo.

“That means they're not the worst talks but until anything is done or signed there's nothing to say. Emre is a very important player for us. We don't want to sell or lose players who are in our first line up or close to it. Emre is certainly one of them. We want to keep him and we're having good talks.”[/article]
 
I'm in - I maybe be a stinking, grizzled looking crust twat but while the banana skins are still dry I'll be smoking and waiting.
 
When this doesn't happen we'll have to create a rota to keep an eye on Doc, poor guys invested in this too much
 
IF we dont sign him this summer, I think one of 2 things will happen - He'll sign a new contract with no release clause for next year, or, he'll have another storming season and we'll be at the back of the queue to get him next summer as all the rich clubs will be all over him.
 
It's Schrodinger's transfer. There's no escaping that infinite Docs are going to be let down, let's just hope that our Doc isn't one of them.

Yes, but in those infinite universes the Firm (who I understand to be an interdimensional society of seers) has already announced the deal is dead. In this universe the Firm say Tuesday. It has been foretold and has came to be many times before, and will do so uncountable times again.
