Keita on list
New coach, new candidates! Lucien Favre has his eye on bringing a former FC Zurich player to Berlin. The new Hertha coach wants Alhassane Keita to join him at the capital city club.
The 23 year old striker has been in talks with Salzburg for weeks, but because of Favre, Hertha are now the favourites for his signature. The Guinea-born striker is a little like Marcelinho, the Brazilian playmaker who played for over five years in Berling and now plays for Bundesliga rivals VfL Wolfsburg. The striker likes to colour his hair and is not very punctual!
Keita was the Swiss league's top scorer with 20 goals in the 2005/6 season. He was then lured by money to the Saudi Arabian club Al Ittihad Jedda, where he reportedly earned 700,000 Euros, scoring 28 goals in only 40 games.
