Youth career

Keita started playing football when he was seven. At fourteen he was playing for Evreux in the Honors Division. Wolves offered him a week-long trial, and were impressed enough to take him on. He did well at U18 level and was moved up to U21 where, after what looked like a slow start, he began to score goals, but from round about the Christmas of 2014 he was a sub rather than a starter, or he would start a game and get subbed off. Then he was out of the squad altogether. The latest news is that he has been offered a new two-year deal but has rejected this: Kenny Jacket says that the player has received three very good and improved offers from the club, but has turned them down.

He has three times sat on the first team bench: twice in the 2013-14 season, and once this season (22 November). He has yet to get any first team football though.
