Mane has not told Liverpool he wants to leave amid Bayern links

Sadio Mane has not told Liverpool he wants to leave amid links with a move to Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich.

Liverpool are expecting contact from the German club but would want more than the €30million (£35m) being quoted to contemplate doing a deal for the Senegal international, who has 12 months left on his current deal.

Bayern are expected to offer Mane a contract until the summer of 2025, Sky Germany is reporting. They anticipate an initial offer of €30m plus between €5m and €10m in bonus payments.

The club's sporting director Hasan Salihamdzic will lead negotiations, while CEO Oliver Kahn and his predecessor Karl-Heinz Rumenigge watched Mane at Saturday night's Champions League final.

Mane hinted on Wednesday he would announce a "special" decision on his long-term plans after the Paris showpiece but following the 1-0 defeat at the Stade de France, the forward did not make an appearance in front of the media
