Afcon qualifiers: Guinea ‘negotiated’ with Liverpool for Naby Keita's release – Didier Six

Liverpool have released Naby Keita for just one of Guinea’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifying fixtures next week, national team coach Didier Six has disclosed.

The Syli Nationale are scheduled to tackle Mali and Namibia in their final qualifying games on March 24 and 28 respectively.

Due to the mandatory quarantine after travels outside of England, Liverpool have granted Keita permission to play the game against Mali at the Stade du 28 Septembre but he will miss the trip to Namibia to get ready for the Reds’ Premier League trip to Arsenal on April 4.
