Zinedine Zidane is expected to reignite his interest in Liverpool’s Sadio Mane this summer.
The Frenchman has returned to Real Madrid just months after quitting the club following their Champions League success.
Zidane has reportedly demanded he be given money to spend this summer to overhaul the squad at the Bernabeu.
The likes of Eden Hazard and Kylian Mbappe have both been linked while El Chiringuito TV claims Mane and Paul Pogba are also on Zidane’s radar.
Mane was a target for Zidane before the end of last season as he identified the Senegalese as a potential replacement for Gareth Bale.
Zidane was a big admirer of the forward and had him at the top of his list of potential targets before his departure.
The move failed to materialise after Julen Lopetegui’s arrival with Mane then signing a new deal at Liverpool in November.
Mane is settled on Merseyside and is contracted until 2023 but in the past, he has refused to rule out a future switch.
“I am very happy in Liverpool but you never know what will happen in the future,” Mane said when quizzed about his future on the eve of this season.
