A Liverpool flop 'is in talks' to sign for a new club after being made to train on his own.
Naby Keita, who was signed by former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp, joined the Reds in the summer of 2018 after penning a pre-contract.
A series of injuries meant he started only 49 Premier League games during his time at Anfield.
Last year, he signed for Werder Bremen on a free transfer but his time at the club is coming to an end.

The 29-year-old made just 5 appearances across all competitions last season as he was made to train on his own at Bremen following a disciplinary issue.
He was suspended by the Bundesliga side and given a 'substantial fine' after refusing to travel with the team for their game at Bayer Leverkusen last season.
Amid his exile at the club, Keita is set to switch sides, according to a report.
It's claimed Keita is in talks with Istanbul Basaksehir over a potential move.

The midfielder also had interest from Championship outfit Sunderland, who were unable to agree terms with the player.
Basaksehir, who are managed by Cagdas Atan, boasts the likes of Krzysztof Piatek, Olivier Kemen and Matchoi Djalo within their ranks.
Keita will strengthen the club's midfield options, having enjoyed spells in Germany and England.

He starred at Red Bull Salzburg which earned him a move to RB Leipzig.
The Guinea international played 71 games in all competitions for the club, scoring 17 goals.
He featured in 129 matches for Liverpool but struggled to stay fit which hampered his game-time.
A move to Turkey appears to be on the cards, with Victor Osimhen recently making the switch to Galatasaray from Napoli.
