Ralf Rangnick’s hardline approach is the Bundesliga club’s de facto stance as they refuse to negotiate - at any price - for the 22-year-old

RB Leipzig have told Liverpool to forget about recruiting Naby Keita this summer, with a deal “practically impossible” to conclude.

The £66 million offer for the Guinea international was submitted by the Merseysiders on Monday, and was rejected with the same message that accompanied their opening bid - the dynamic midfielder is not for sale at any price.
