Argentina are 2-0 up against Croatia in the Qatar World Cup semi-final. Goals from Lionel Messi and Julian Alvarez have the South Americans on top as they move closer to playing in the World Cup final while awaiting the opponent who will emerge from Wednesday's clash between France and Morocco. While this is happening in Qatar, there is one player who will return to Liverpool to be managed by German coach Jürgen Klopp.

Within the Reds, things are looking a little tense, as the winter transfer window could open the door for the departure of some stars, and others are entering the final stretch of their contracts, as is the case of Guinea's Naby Keita, who has been injured in the last six months, and unable to fight for a place in the starting eleven of Jürgen Klopp, who has already made a decision on the future of the African.

Keita arrived at Anfield in 2018 after being acquired from Red Bull Leipzig for a fee in the region of 60 million, tying him to the club until mid-2023. Since then he has had an up and down situation, where the last season has been difficult as since the FA Community Shield final, where they beat Manchester City 3-1, Keita has not played. In that match, he came on at the end of the game and played just five minutes.

Recently, a Premier League study revealed that the 27-year-old has the fourth highest rating per game in the history of the league, that is, the Pool player is above players like Phil Foden, Gabriel Jesus and even Kevin de Bruyne. With 2.49 he is tied with Arsenal's Oleksandr Zinchenko, who did it in the shortest time.

Keita is back

Keita added more than 70 days of absence for the Red's after suffering a knock in the summer. Reports from England reveal that negotiations over a possible renewal are at a standstill, with the board unhappy with the midfielder's performance, having picked up a score of injuries during his time at Anfield. However, Keita has returned to training with the Reds and even took part in the friendly in Dubai against Lyon on Sunday.
