Sadio Mane refuses to commit to Liverpool: Stay or not...?

Sadio Mane cannot guarantee staying with Liverpool this summer.

The Reds face Real Madrid in the Champions League final in Paris on Saturday night in a repeat of the 2018 final.

And Mane, who has been linked with a move away, set off alarm bells at Anfield as he vowed to announce his future following the game.

The Paris final is a repeat of Liverpool's defeat to Real in Kyiv, Mane said: "For sure it will be special to win it, and make it seven (European Cup wins for the club). And this question (my future) I will answer after the Champions League. Stay or not - I'll answer after the Champions League."

He added: "For me, it's not revenge, for sure it's not revenge. Four years in between, a lot of things have changed - the way we deal with games, experience, we have more quality in the team, so it's an exciting game.

"We all forgot about what happened in 2018. For sure Real Madrid were the better team and fully deserved to win the final, and congratulations, but it's going to be a different game.

"There's no pressure, nothing, at all. Just to enjoy. It's a dream moment for us so let's enjoy it without making pressure for ourselves because it doesn't help... everybody is fully confident, which is amazing."
