Naby Keita

“I think, as a midfielder, you need to have that aggression as part of your game.”

“I'm the kind of person who thinks that if I score eight goals in one season, my objective must be to score nine goals in the following season. That's the kind of mentality I have.”

“I was determined to become a footballer, not only because I loved the game but so I could provide for my family.”

“It's been a dream of mine since I was a young boy. Even back then, I had decided that one day I would play in the Champions League.”

“As a kid, we used to play wearing a Liverpool shirt in the streets.”

“I wanted to be Deco, Titi Camara, or Pascal Feindouno when I was young, and now there are kids with my name on the back of their shirts! That is such a big motivation for me, and I hope I continue to show them that, with courage and determination, they can achieve anything.”

“I moved to Liverpool to win trophies.”

“I'm someone who likes to respond to a challenge. I never give up or stop trying, even if things were a little bit more difficult at the beginning.”

“Every game you play, you do your best.”

“Jurgen Klopp is actually more active on the sidelines than some of his colleagues. For us players, this is very motivating. He gives us extra energy on the pitch through his coaching.”
