Reports suggest that Sadio Mane is yet to put pen to paper on a contract extension with Liverpool amid lucrative offers from other elite European clubs.
Cult Hero's Liverpool Exit 'Confirmed'
The Senegal forward has been in sublime form since the turn of the year, having found the back of the net 12 times, more than any other Liverpool player in that time, and it seems the Reds are eager to reward him with a new contract.
However, the 30-year-old has reportedly put a halt to any talks regarding a possible extension with the six-time UEFA Champions League winners as he has profitable offers to consider from clubs outside of England.
The reigning CAF African Player of the Year is on £100 000 (R1.9 million) a week, according to Spotrac, well outside the top 10 earners at Anfield, and with his contract set to expire at the end of next season, manager Jurgen Klopp will be keen to tie Mane down for a few more years.
That may be a difficult feat to achieve, though, as it has emerged that Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain have shown significant interest in signing the former Southampton man.
The French giants are said to be frontrunners for his signature, with Mane taking a liking to Les Parisiens and the massive contract they have offered him, as per Sport Bild reporter Christian Falk.
The newly crowned Ligue 1 champions could perhaps be looking for world-class attacking talent in case Kylian Mbappe decides to leave the club, and it seems Mane is the man they want.
Any contract resolution is expected come after Liverpool's season concludes as they still have a slim chance of completing an unprecedented quadruple, but Klopp will not want to lose one of his star player on a free deal come the end of next season.
