Liverpool tell Real Madrid they WILL sanction Sadio Mane transfer but only if Vincius Junior comes to Anfield – reports
Liverpool have told Real Madrid they will sell Sadio Mane on the sole condition that wonderkid Vinicius Junior moves to Anfield, according to reports.The Senegal striker is enjoying a tremendous season, scoring 22 goals in all competitions and is leading the Reds’ title charge.2

Vinicius Junior is a reported target for Liverpool

His improvement under Jurgen Klopp has not gone unnoticed and Los Blancos are reportedly still keen.Last season, a deal was reportedly in place for Mane to move to the Bernabeu. But this collapsed once Zinedine Zidane stunned the world by quitting.However, with the Frenchman back in charge for a second stint, a deal is once again a serious possibility and Madrid have reportedly already made enquiries.But, according to Eduardo Inda of El Chringuito TV, the Spanish side baulked once they realised what the Reds wanted in return.2

SADIO MANE STATS (ALL COMPETITIONS)

The Liverpool striker is enjoying a fantastic season

• Appearances – 50
• Goals – 21
• Assists – 1
• Dribbles – 135
• Key Passes – 54

Reports suggest Klopp wanted Vinicius Junior involved in a potential swap deal to sanction Mane’s Anfield exit.The 18-year-old moved to the Spanish capital for 45million in 2018 and has been a rare bright spark in what has been an otherwise poor season.His pace and dynamic style are not too dissimilar to Mane, but the Brazilian will need to work on his decision-making and final pass to fulfil his undoubted potential.
