Naby Keita has already suffered an injury with Werder Bremen just weeks after the midfielder left Liverpool to sign for the Bundesliga side.
As per the club’s official Twitter account, the Guinean maestro picked up a slight knock before Bremen’s pre-season friendly against VfB Oldenburg, with injury problems continuing to plague Keita’s career back in Germany.
Keita’s time with Liverpool was underlined by constant fitness issues and weeks or even months spent on the injury table. And the 28-year-old is already fighting an injury with Bremen, with the midfielder joining the Bundesliga side for free this summer.
Indeed, whilst it’s not yet know how bad Keita’s knock is, Liverpool fans will be hopeful that the midfielder is fit to start the new season, with many supporters eager to see the former Anfield star return to his in the Bundesliga with Bremen.
Keita will want to impress this season at Bremen
It is perhaps comical that Keita has already suffered an injury just mere weeks since Liverpool. Yet for many and to the player himself, he’ll want to prove his worth at Bremen after taking a paycut to join the Bundesliga side after being released by Liverpool.
As we know, Keita when fit and firing is a world-class midfielder who any club would love to have in their squad. And for the 28-year-old, he’ll want to show the world what he is capable of at Bremen this season, especially his former employers Liverpool.
