Transfer window: Mane must not be allowed to leave, says Liverpool hero Carragher

Liverpool hero, Jamie Carragher, hailed matchwinner Sadio Mane after victory at Aston Villa and warned that the club should not allow him to leave this summer.

Mane – who scored the winning goal in Liverpool’s 2-1 victory over Aston Villa on Tuesday night – is entering the final year of his contract like Mohamed Salah but, as yet, no significant discussions have taken place about extending his stay at the club, which began in June 2016 after he signed from Southampton.

“When I have watched Liverpool as a fan, Sadio Mane is my favourite player,” he told Sky Sports. “There is just something about Mane. He’s sacrificed himself at times and the shift he puts in.

“He, along with Salah, has been doing that for five years – they are never injured! They are there week in, week out for 90 minutes, getting the numbers up there every week. What they have done for this football club is unbelievable.

“I’m a huge fan of Sadio Mane and I can assure you he will be going nowhere because I will not let him go to Bayern Munich, he’d have me to deal with!”
