Wearing a Liverpool uniform, Naby Keita attended a local match on Wednesday at his hometown stadium before heading back to Guinea for his post-season break.

Because of how diverse the Liverpool team is, the end of the season is sometimes the only chance for many of Jurgen Klopp’s players to return home.

While Mohamed Salah is vacationing with his family in Egypt, Luis Diaz has been Traveling back to Colombia in front of the first preseason Game on July 4.

Keita, who is currently in Guinea, went to his birthplace of Conakry and his childhood suburb of Coleah this past week to catch up with friends, family, and locals.

The 27-year-old may also be seen taking part in an exhibition match at the Stade Koitayah, which is where “it all began,” according to Mlamine Toure and journalist Med Sesay.  The midfield player donned the new Liverpool home jersey alongside his teaMMAtes, but Keita didn’t wear his usual No. 8 shirt; instead, he wore No. 70.

“After not playing in his old stadium in nearly ten years, Naby Keita and his friends from Santoba FC celebrated his goal this afternoon with the dance of Zapata,” Sesay wrote.

Keita reportedly thrilled the spectators with two goals in a brief debut, according to Guineefoot.

He also met to talk about renovating the 40-year-old former Guinea international Mamadi Kaba Dieng’s house. Dieng is a legendary football player from Conakry who currently plays for a local team, AS Kaloum Star.

Keita’s season ended a little later than many of his teaMMAtes’ due to Guinea’s post-season Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers. He might thus not make a comeback for Monday’s preseason opener.

But as of now, the club has not confirmed which group will be reporting to the AXA Training Centre.
