Sadio Mane could make U-turn

Sadio Mane has not told Liverpool he wants to leave amid links with Bayern Munich

Mane is linked with a move to Bayern Munich this summer

Bayern are confident they can sign Liverpool forward Sadio Mane for less than €50m (£42.5m) this summer, according to Sky Germany.

Liverpool are expecting contact from the Bundesliga champions but would want more than the €30million (£25m) being quoted to contemplate doing a deal for the Senegal international, who has 12 months left on his current deal.

Bayern sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic has made Mane the top priority on his transfer list and met his representatives this month to formalise the interest.

Paris Saint-Germain were also linked with Mane but Kylian Mbappe's contract extension and Leonardo's possible exit as sporting director means the club are unlikely to have the financial leeway to strike a deal.

Mane said he would reveal where his future lies after the Champions League final and promised a "special" answer following the showpiece event in Paris against Real Madrid - but that is yet to be announced.

Although sources have claimed he has told his Liverpool teammates that he's leaving.
