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 he 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.

International

One cap for French U16 v Italy.
