Juventus are reportedly targeting Liverpool midfielder Naby Keita, who could exit Anfield if the Reds are successful in securing AC Milan's Franck Kessie.

Juventus have reportedly set their sights on signing Liverpool midfielder Naby Keita, amid doubt over his future at Anfield.

The 27-year-old is believed to be the player who could be sacrificed in the Liverpool squad, to make room for Jurgen Klopp's target, AC Milan midfielder Franck Kessie.

Keita has continued to struggle for game time during his spell on Merseyside, partly due to injury issues, making just seven Premier League starts this season, equalling his tally from the previous campaign.

According to reports in Italy from Calciomercato, Juventus are keen to sign the Guinean international but could face competition from Serie A rivals AC Milan, particularly if the Rossoneri lose Kessie this summer.

A major hurdle Juve would have to overcome to secure Keita's signature would be his wage demand, as he is believed to currently earn approximately £6m per annum.

Since arriving at Anfield in 2018, Keita has gone on to score 10 goals along with providing five assists in 94 appearances for the club.
