Naby Keita has been ‘deleted’ from Werder Bremen’s website

The future of Naby Keita at Werder Bremen remains uncertain as he has been “deleted” from the club’s website and informed that there is “no way back.”

After leaving Liverpool in 2023, Keita signed a three-year deal with Werder Bremen, but his tenure has been tumultuous.

In April, he was suspended by the club for refusing to travel for an away match against Bayer Leverkusen, and his absence from the team has extended into the current season.

Notably, Keita’s photo has been removed from the club’s website, raising questions about his status.

Despite the European transfer window having already closed, there remains the possibility that he could still be sold.

Werder Bremen’s head of professional football, Clemens Fritz, discussed the situation on the German TV program Doppelpass.

“We have to find a solution with his agency,” Fritz said.

“There are still some markets like the United Arab Emirates that are open.

“A new transfer window starts again in October or we might find a solution during the winter break.

“For us it is clear, we will not terminate the contract now. There is no way back.”

He added: “Naby is a pretty is a pretty good guy” but that he crossed a line when refusing to play against Leverkusen.

“When we signed him, we knew that it could be a certain opportunity but also a risk.

“We tried to get him to the best possible level but if someone refuses to get on the Werder bus for an away game, especially at a time when we had many injured and suspended players.

“He’s not a stubborn person, Naby is a pretty good guy.

“He had the expectation of himself that he had to play based on his training but we haven’t seen that from him.

“For me that’s an absolute no-go.

“That’s why we have to find a solution with his agency.”
