Jurgen Klopp Says Naby Keita Took a 'Big Step' with Bournemouth Performance

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has hailed Naby Keita for putting in an excellent performance in the Reds' 3-0 win over Bournemouth on Saturday.

The Guinean midfielder has taken time to settle since his arrival from RB Leipzig last summer, but Klopp was rewarded against the Cherries for picking him ahead of Jordan Henderson and Adam Lallana.

Per the Mirror's Simon Bird, Klopp said:

"There is still a lot to come, because he is still adapting. Sometimes it takes longer, that's how it is.
