Sadio Mané finished the best season of his career in English football last season with 20 goals and nine assists in 44 games for Liverpool.
Mané played on the left side of a very clinical Liverpool front-three that drove the Merseyside club towards the Champions League final where they ultimately fell short against two-time defending champions Real Madrid.
The Senegalese winger has since been linked with a move to Madrid with France Football reporting that Real Madrid have an agreement in principle to bring Mané to the Santiago Bernabeu next season.

However, the links have since been disputed by Bleacher Report football insider Dean Jones and Daily Mirror northern football correspondent David Maddock who both claim that Mané will likely stay at Anfield next season.

Mané said that he enjoyed playing alongside fellow forwards Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah this season and that Liverpool's effectiveness last season stemmed from their strength as a collective.
"Like I have always said, I have always been enjoying playing alongside these great players,” the 26-year-old said before last month's Champions League final.
“They make everything easier for me. I am a lucky boy and we always talk about the front three, but don't forget it starts from the back. It makes it easier - the power of Liverpool Football Club is the collective. We always do everything together, this is our power."
