New signing Naby Keita is not surprised by the media amazement at his move to Bundesliga club Werder Bremen.
“I understand that many people are wondering why I’m making the move from Liverpool FC to Werder Bremen,” said the 28-year-old Guinean international in an interview with his new club after the official announcement of his signing of the contract.
“When I spoke to the coach and the sports director, they told me about the club’s project. After that, I gave it a lot of thought – including with my family,” said Keita, who previously worked for RB Leipzig in the highest German football club from 2016 to 2018 Bundesliga: “In the end I had to make a decision and I chose Werder Bremen.”
Keita is “very happy about this decision” and he “will give everything with the team in the coming season”. Keita “missed the time in Germany a lot. But now I’m back in the Bundesliga and I hope to be able to pick up on old times.”
The midfielder switched from Leipzig to Anfield five years ago for 60 million euros. With the Reds, Keita won the Champions League in 2019 and the English championship the following year.
On the island, however, Keita also struggled with injuries. In the team of German team manager Jürgen Klopp, the 28-year-old only made 84 appearances in the Premier League, most recently in February of this year.
