Sadio Mane 'willing' to leave Liverpool for two clubs as Renato Sanches move 'likely'

Liverpool surprised a selection of supporters with the January acquisition of Luis Diaz.

The Colombian's arrival is likely to further raise the high standards already in place at the club as the 25-year-old looks to compete for a place in the starting-eleven.

Despite this eye-catching deal being completed, it is anticipated the summer transfer window will be of significant importance as Jurgen Klopp looks to transform the side.

Activity may have been placed on pause for the next few months for clubs across Europe, but the rumour mill continues to turn.

What?

Sadio Mane is reportedly 'willing' to leave Liverpool this summer, should Barcelona or Real Madrid look to secure his services.

The Senegalese star is out of contract with the Reds in 2023 and is yet to agree terms over a new deal with the club.

If Liverpool are to cash in on the 29-year-old, it would need to take place this summer before Mane enters a period of being allowed to agree a contract pre-arrangement with foreign clubs in January 2023.

The above report adds that Mane would not like to end his career without 'fulfilling a dream' he has had since he was a child: playing for one of the great LaLiga clubs.

Liverpool's interest in Leeds United winger remains 'genuine', it has been claimed.

The Brazilian international is a player who has enjoyed gradual improvement since signing for Marcelo Bielsa's side in 2020, though could yet make the next step in his career.

Luis Diaz's arrival has raised questions over whether Klopp's side will continue to pursue a deal for the 25-year-old, though the futures of Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane could determine such decisions.

Addressing transfer speculation linking him with a move away from Elland Road, Raphinha told BBC Radio Leeds: "I’ve got a contract until 2024, my head is totally here and focused on Leeds.

"As for contractual matters, I leave them for my agent and my dad. I just focus on my football, making Leeds fans happy, scoring goals, providing assists and getting victories for the team."

"The contractual matters are for my agent. My focus is on making people happy with my football and doing as best as I can for Leeds."

Who?

Renato Sanches

Where?

What?

Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano believes Lille midfielder Renato Sanches is likely to still be 'on the list' of transfer targets for Liverpool.

The Reds have been linked with a move for the Portugal international on more than occasion in recent windows, but the 24-year-old remains in Ligue 1 at this moment in time.

Sanches is out of contract with his current employers in the summer of 2023 and is likely to continue attracting the interest of top European clubs in the coming months.
