According to The Daily Mail, Liverpool are looking to sign Southampton winger Sadio Mane in a £25m deal in the coming weeks.
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp wants to move in on the long-term Liverpool target. Mane has been linked with Liverpool many times over the past 18 months and it looks like that interest is about to culminate in a signing.
The Senegalese winger was offered a new contract by Southampton, but is ready to turn that down and join Liverpool this summer. The deal may surprise some, with Southampton having Europa League football and Liverpool not. However, the lure of playing for a club of their stature looks too great for Mane.
The 24-year-old has been at Southampton for two seasons, scoring 25 goals in 75 games during that time.
He joins the likes of Adam Lallana, Rickie Lambert and Dejan Lovren to make the switch from Southampton to Liverpool in recent seasons.
Mane is priced at £25m, which Liverpool now seem ready to pay.
