Metro UK reports the former Southampton ace is already closing in on a move to the Bundesliga giants after he decided to leave Anfield.

According to the publication, Liverpool chiefs have since drawn up a three-man shortlist of players they feel can replace Mane.

Liverpool place Chelsea winger Christian Pulisic on transfer wishlist

Daily Mail claims Chelsea winger Christian Pulisic is among three players the FA Cup champions are targeting to succeed Mane.

Jurgen Klopp is understood to be an admirer of Pulisic who is considering his future with the Blues after slipping down Thomas Tuchel’s pecking order.

Other players earmarked for Mane's role include Bayern superstar, Serge Gnabry, and Man United target, Arnaut Danjuma.

Gnabry, a former Arsenal star has just a year left on his current deal with the Bavarians and would fancy a return to the Premier League.

On his part, Danjuma has enjoyed a significant rise to prominence, with his impressive performances with Villarreal earning him interest from European heavyweights.

The Dutchman is already wanted at Old Trafford to be a part of Man United's rebuild under Erik ten Hag.

Liverpool in danger of losing 13 players this summer

Earlier, Sports Brief reported a mass exodus is looming at Liverpool this summer that could see more than 10 players depart the club.

Sadio Mane and James Milner headline a list of players projected to dump the Merseyside club in the coming weeks.

Mane has been linked with a move to Bayern Munich, with reports suggesting he has already agreed a three-year deal to join the Bavarians.
