Super Lig side Hatayspor agreed a loan deal with the option to purchase Keita next summer. Turkish media even claimed that the player had already completed his medical, but the player and the club ultimately failed to agree on personal terms at the last minute.

Naby Keita was close to a transfer to the Turkish club Hatayspor, but according to information from "Deichstube," it did not happen at the last moment. The transfer of the professional from Werder Bremen was supposed to be completed by Friday evening. The 29-year-old is still under contract with SVW until the end of June 2026, but he has no future there.

Werder Bremen hoped for a last-minute departure of Naby Keïta. Hatayspor aimed for a loan deal with an option to buy. Turkish media reported that a medical check was passed, but the transfer failed at the last moment as Keïta and Hatayspor could not reach an agreement.
