Sadio Mane's contract,
Sadio Mane's contract demands of £393k per week have been rejected by Liverpool.
Sadio Mane, who has been linked with a move away from Liverpool, demanded a massive pay rise in order to stay at Anfield beyond this summer, according to sources.
The 30-year-old Senegalese wonder declined to comment on his future plans before Real Madrid's Champions League final defeat, but now appears to be on his way out of Merseyside. Bayern Munich are the favourites to sign him as the German champions want to replace Serge Gnabry, who could be returning to Arsenal.
Mane has created a powerful partnership down the left wing with Andy Robertson, and has been an integral part of Liverpool's Premier League and Champions League triumphs.
Mohamed Salah, the Premier League's golden boot winner, has already agreed to a contract with the Reds. Salah is holding out for a new £400,000-a-week deal, which would more than double his current income,Salah, on the other hand, is willing to leave Liverpool in 2023 for another top-flight team if a deal cannot be reached.
According to BILD, Salah's teammate Mane wanted a sum slightly less than Salah's expected renewal fee. The 30-year-old had wanted a hefty raise in his £100,000-a-week contract to bring him in line with Liverpool's top earners, but the club turned down his request to nearly triple his pay.
Sadio Mane appears to be on his way to Bayern Munich after Liverpool turned down his £393k-per-week contract demands.
The Reds have turned down his £393k-a-week ultimatum and are now ready to sanction his exit. Bayern Munich are optimistic of reaching an agreement with the Senegalese forward, who is valued at £30 million, despite Real Madrid and PSG threatening to hijack a move to Bavaria.
Germany is Mane's favorite country. In Munich, he sees himself as the top star, whereas in Paris or Madrid, he would be one of several big-name players.
Mane apparently desired an amount similar to Salah's alleged renewal figure.
Jurgen Klopp is already scratching his head over Mane's departure.Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp already has a tough task ahead of him in fighting against a star-studded Manchester City squad, especially as Pep Guardiola has already signed free-scoring forward Erling Haaland ahead of the new season.
