Naby Keita knows all about Liverpool - having watched them especially closely last season.
The Reds agreed a deal with RB Leipzig last year to bring Keita to Anfield this summer.
And the £52.75m Guinea international will formally become a Liverpool player on Sunday
July 1.
Ahead of his official arrival, Keita has travelled to Merseyside and spoken out on his move.
While being a fan of the football Liverpool play, the 23-year-old also outlined how conversations
with Sadio Mane and Jurgen Klopp helped make his decision.
Keita will be the Reds' new No.8, becoming the first to wear it since Steven Gerrard's
departure in 2015.
And he is relishing the prospect of featuring for the Champions League runners up next season.
"When you see how they performed last season it makes me want to do the same and to be
a part of this team," Keita told Liverpool's official website.
"I would like to be able to achieve a similar kind of season with them next season – but
even better.
"I chose Liverpool because it is a team I watched often.
"And I also spoke a lot about it with Sadio Mane.
He told me a lot about the team and the club.
"I also spoke with the coach, who told me about the project for the team and that motivated
me to be here."
Come Sunday, Keita will join Brazil international Fabinho as Liverpool's two summer recruits
so far.
