Sadio Mane set to sign for Liverpool for £30m

Southampton’s Sadio Mane is on the brink of becoming Liverpool’s standout summer signing after he was given permission to travel to Merseyside for a medical.
 
Liverpool agreed a £30million fee with Southampton over the weekend for the Senegal forward and he will now undergo a physical assessment before his representatives negotiate personal terms with chief executive Ian Ayre.
 
Jurgen Klopp has been determined to add Mane, 24, to his squad and Liverpool have been in discussions with Southampton for much of the past four weeks in order to strike a deal.
 
Klopp believes Mane has the pace, energy and aggression to give Liverpool’s attack a different dimension and at some point in the coming days, he will be confirmed as the third biggest signing in the club’s history.
 
It had been Klopp’s desire to have Mane on board for the start of pre-season - Liverpool’s non European Championship players report for work on July 2 - and he could even make his debut in the first pre-season game at Tranmere on July 8.

Mario Gotze, the Bayern Munich forward, had been the prime target on Klopp’s summer wish-list but when he indicated he was reluctant to move to the Premier League, Liverpool quickly turned their attentions to Mane.
 
Once the deal is completed, Southampton will have received £91.5million in transfer fees from Liverpool over the last three summers with Mane following Adam Lallana (£25m), Dejan Lovren (£20m), Nathaniel Clyne (£12.5m) and Rickie Lambert (£4m) from the south coast.
 
Mane, whom Southampton signed for £11.8million two years ago, made a lasting impression on Klopp when he scored twice and inspired a dramatic 3-2 win over Liverpool at St Mary’s on March 20.

The 24-year-old will become Liverpool’s fourth signing over the summer after Joel Matip (free from Schalke), Marko Grujic, whose £5m switch from Red Star Belgrade was agreed in January, and goalkeeper Loris Karius from Mainz.
 
Further additions are expected before the end of the window, with Liverpool having submitted bids for the Udinese midfielder Piotr Zelinski and Leicester left-back Ben Chilwell, while they continue to track Borussia Monchengladbach’s Mahmoud Dahoud.
