Naby Keita suffers fresh injury setback at new club – “visibly upset” on exit – Liverpool FC

Naby Keita is facing yet another spell on the sidelines at new club Werder Bremen, picking up a new injury on his first start for the German club.

Intended to be a new start, Keita’s free transfer to Werder Bremen saw the midfielder take a significant pay cut on his previous earnings at Liverpool.

The Guinean opted for a step down, from challenging at the top end of the Premier League and Champions League to mid-table in the Bundesliga, in order to revive his fortunes.

But the same fitness problems are still plaguing him, with Keita missing the majority of pre-season and the start of the campaign with an adductor injury.

And three games into his comeback, and in his first start for the club, the 28-year-old tore a thigh muscle in Saturday’s 3-2 loss at Hoffenheim.

Naby Keïta wird dem SV Werder Bremen in den kommenden Bundesliga-Spielen fehlen.
