Liverpool
Two years after leaving Anfield, the Liverpool great is about to make another transfer.

Sadio Mane, a legend of Liverpool, seems to be moving again. The 32-year-old, who is still highly regarded at Anfield, is no longer desired by Al-Nassr, a Saudi Arabian team.
Mane played a major role in Liverpool’s success during his tenure, helping the team win both the Premier League and the Champions League.
But Mane’s trip hasn’t been the best since he left the Reds to join Bayern Munich in June 2022. His time in Bavaria was short-lived as he joined the Saudi Pro League the previous summer.
Al-Nassr officials are currently negotiating a season-long loan with rivals Al-Ittihad, according to a report from Okaz.
Maney’s Wages: An obstacle
though Besiktas and Fenerbahce of Turkey expressed interest in signing Mane, the likelihood of his staying in the Saudi League is still strong despite early negotiations between Al-Nassr and Al-Qadisiyah over a transaction that finally fell through.
The Senegalese forward, who scored 13 goals and provided eight assists in 32 Pro League games last season, has not been able to regain the form that made him a standout at Liverpool. Al-Ittihad has shown interest in the player.
However, this move is predicated on Mane agreeing to a large wage cut from his present 25 million euros annual compensation, a price Al-Ittihad feel exorbitant for the time-being.
That said, to cover Mane’s wage, Al-Ittihad are apparently making efforts to transfer Jota and Luiz Felipe.
IMPORTANT CHANGES COMING AT AL-NASSR
Mane’s prospective transfer to Al-Ittihad coincides with major changes at his present club, including a shift in the dug-out, as they try to catch up to champions Al-Hilal.
Gian Piero Gasperini, the manager of Atalanta, and Stefano Pioli, the former AC Milan coach, are reportedly among the leading contenders to succeed Luis Castro.
Even so, Mane’s legacy at Liverpool is unblemished as he mulls over his future move. But whether or not he can turn his career around and find stability in his current situation will depend greatly on what happens in the upcoming weeks.

Liverpool transfer news: $44 million ‘offer close as Dortmund compete for Juventus wonderkid.
Crysensio Summerville
Liverpool have a’set to be submitted’ bid for $44 million-rated Crysensio Summerville, while Borussia Dortmund are vying for a Juventus wonderkid.
At this point, almost everyone thinks that Liverpool has to buy a center-back, but signing Lille sensation Leny Yoro, who prefers to play for Real Madrid, may be impossible.
While Liverpool needs to find a replacement for the 18-year-old defender, the club should also search for a top-tier attacker to join its ranks. With the Champions League returning to Anfield next season, there will be more games than ever, giving Arne Slot plenty of alternatives.
Crysencio Summerville – [Leeds United]
Liverpool and Chelsea are both’set to launch bids’ for Leeds United winger Crysencio Summerville during the summer transfer window, Leeds Live reports. The 22-year-old Dutchman scored 20 goals and assisted nine others last season, but he was playing in the second division, so it’s unclear whether those figures will translate to the Premier League.
Summerville is likely to play for Leeds next year, despite the fact that the club was not promoted back to the top division. He is projected to attract a transfer price of approximately $44 million (£35 million/€41 million).
Liverpool.com says: It would be great if Liverpool could add further depth to its assault this summer, but Summerville would cost $44 million. There is no assurance that he will immediately adjust to playing at a higher level.
Kenan Yildiz [Juventus]
Liverpool had previously been linked with a deal for Juventus wonderkid Kenan Yildiz, and La Gazzetta Dello Sport (print edition via Paisley Gates) reports that the adolescent is once again on the club’s radar this summer. Last season, the Turk scored four times in ten starts.
Yildiz is only 19 years old, but Juventus wants to sign him to a longer-term contract since other clubs are interested. According to the source, Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund are both interested in signing him if he becomes available.
According to Liverpool.com, Yildiz is certainly skilled, but he is not yet ready to join the first squad. That is what Liverpool requires this summer: a player capable of stepping into the starting lineup immediately.
