Mandela Keita, a former Royal Antwerp FC player, is attracting increasing interest from teams including Tottenham, Aston Villa, Brentford, Galatasaray, and Napoli. Keita would cost 25 million euros, and if that amount is received, Antwerp will get 7.5% of the surplus value, which would amount to almost one million euros. According to Het Laatste Nieuws, Keita stated that he is not concerned with a transfer and wants to perform well at Parma in the coming months before seeing if a transfer will happen.

According to Italian sources, Napoli is interested in Mandela Keita, a 23-year-old Belgian midfielder for Parma. Napoli is considering the player, who previously played for Antwerp and has been followed by the club for some time. However, there is significant competition from the Premier League, with Tottenham monitoring Keita and Aston Villa also among the interested clubs. Keita has one cap for Belgium, has made 23 appearances in Serie A this season, and his contract with Parma runs until June 2029. In July 2025, it was reported that Parma's asking price was approximately €20 million. The player's current market value is €12.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
