Report: Southampton want £40m for Sadio Mane

Southampton have reportedly slapped a £40m asking price on in-demand attacker Sadio Mane.

The 24-year-old joined the Saints from Red Bull Salzburg in 2014 and has scored 25 times in 75 appearances for the English club, including 15 in 43 matches during the 2015-16 campaign.

Manchester United and Liverpool are both believed to be interested in the Senegal international, but according to The Sun, Southampton are not prepared to accept offers of less than £40m.

Mane signed a four-year contract with Southampton upon joining the club for a figure in the region of £12m.
