HLN is reporting that Mandela Keita is attracting interest from Rennes, Fiorentina and Leicester City. The Antwerp midfielder is open to a move this summer and the club are also in agreement that he can move on. According to Transfermarkt the 22-year-old is valued at around €13m and it is likely that Antwerp would be looking to receive something within that region. This summer they spent €5m to make his loan move from OH Leuven permanent, with the idea that they would be able to cash in on interest during the transfer window.
Keita was a major part of the double winning side back in 2022/2023, providing a strong presence in midfield when he came in on loan from OH Leuven in the winter transfer window. The Great Old brought him back for another spell last season and he once again impressed with his composure in central areas. Keita had his real breakout season with OH Leuven back in the 2021/2022 season, playing 39 games for the side. Since joining Antwerp he has played 58 times, scoring once and grabbing four assists.
