#2 Naby Keïta

3rd Place Match - Audi Quattro Cup 2015

Naby Keïta moved to RB Leipzig in 2014 as a 19 year-old, and has been at the heart of the young club's meteoric rise to the Bundesliga. The Guinean was instrumental last season for the club, and a made a name for himself as one of the best midfield generals in the game today.

His performances for Leipzig turned many heads and led to an increidible 70 million pound bid from English team Liverpool. As of now it would seem that Leipzig has successfully deterred attempts to sign the player, especially since Leipzig will be competing in the Champions League while also having another run at the league tittle.

Keïta is the perfect marriage of physicality and ability on the ball. The Guinean has the ability to start and orchestrating attacks while also being the last line of defense before the back four or back three. If the club are to be successful this season, Keïta will definitely need to have a great season as well.
