Real Madrid have been encouraged by intermediaries in their interest for Liverpool attacker Sadio Mane.

Mane is a favourite of Real coach Zinedine Zidane and he's been told by president Florentino Perez they'll move for the Senegal international if the Reds show a willingness to sell.

France Football says Mane would only leave Anfield for Real Madrid.

And it's also claimed there's a frustration inside the player's camp over his €9m salary and also the perceived favouritism manager Jurgen Klopp has shown to teammates Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah in public.

Real will expect to have to offer over €120m to convince Liverpool to part with Mane.
