Former Liverpool midfielder Momo Sissoko believes Real Madrid will sign Sadio Mane this summer.

Mane has bagged 14 Premier League goals in seven assists so far this season, as Liverpool surged to a 25-point lead over Manchester City, before the campaign was halted due to the Coronavirus outbreak.

"I see Mane at Real Madrid [more than Mohamed Salah]," Sissoko told EuropaCalcio.it.

"He [Mane] has the characteristics that [Zinedine] Zidane wants, I think Mane will go to Real Madrid.

"I don't know if Salah will continue at Liverpool. If he left, his departure could be good for the team.

"Liverpool are very smart and would know how to replace him."
