RB Leipzig’s Willi Orban says he was not surprised by the Naby Keita fight in Liverpool and described his former teammate as a sensitive guy.
What Willi Orban said about Naby Keita?
Naby completed the £ 53million move to Liverpool from Leipzig in the summer of 2018, completing his two-year spell with a German outfit. The Guinean International arrived at Anfield with a reputation as a midfielder of all kinds, but has yet to make it into the Premier League. Willi Orban played alongside Naby Keita for two seasons at Red Bull Arena, and says the 26-year-old needs special treatment to perform at his best due to his emotional nature.
The Leipzig’s quarterback said Naby Keita is a very sensitive guy who needs to be perfectly comfortable with his surroundings in order to perform well. According to Willi Orban you have to take special care of Naby Keita, talk a lot with him and from time to time he needed breaks when Naby was with them. The Premier League is certainly even more demanding in this regard. However, when asked to name the most gifted player he has worked with in his career, Willi Orban added that Naby Keita is with his extraordinary ball control, dynamism and his finishing touches. It was just finished.
