Real Madrid are 'desperate' to sign Liverpool ace Sadio Mane in the summer, according to reports in Spain. Mane has been one of the Reds' outstanding performers this season, with 13 goals and 10 assists in 25 games. The Senegal star has scored a total of 72 goals in 148 appearances for the Merseyside club since his arrival from Southampton in 2016, and has three and a half years left on his contract. Liverpool are said to be keen to tie their flying down to an extension, but SportsMole report Real will attempt to tease him away from Anfield when the summer transfer window opens. It is claimed the Spanish giants have made Mane one of their 'priority' summer signings, as they seek to offload Gareth Bale and get in a new forward to replace him. But they'd have to fork out well over £100million if they wanted to sign the Redman.
