Naby Keita has revealed how Jurgen Klopp is constantly on his case at Liverpool – as he revealed the one thing perplexing him at Anfield.

Keita has endured a difficult opening to his Reds career following a £52.75million move from RB Leipzig during the summer.

Injury and the intense competition for places in midfield have restricted the Guinea international to just seven starts with his brief outing from the bench against Fulham on Sunday his only appearance in a month.

And the 23-year-old admits Liverpool boss Klopp is striving to help him adapt to Liverpool.

“I am really, really happy to play with my team-mates and I am learning from their experience,” said Keita.

“I'm training with them every day and I am trying to get them better, to learn from them.

“I watch them and of course the coach is always speaking to me, saying 'you can do this better, you need to do this'.

“I hope that in six months I will be able to give interviews to you in English (instead of through a translator).

“I am finding the Liverpool accent a bit difficult to be honest, but I am trying my best. I don't know much Scouse yet, but I have been told 'boss' means good.”

Keita struck up an instant bond with Daniel Sturridge during pre-season and, speaking to the official Liverpool FC matchday programme, has revealed how the striker is helping him settle.

“Everybody has been really good to me and my team-mates all come and speak to me,” he said.

“I understand bits of what they're saying, but the one who has really, really been good with me is Daniel Sturridge.

“He comes to see me, he speaks to me and he gives me advice. He has got a lot of experience and he is really helping me.”
