Sadio Mane happy at Liverpool despite Real Madrid rumours.
Liverpool forward Sadio Mane insists he is happy at Anfield following his reported move to Real Madrid.
Los Blancos have been tipped to move for the Senegal international, who scored against them in the Reds’ Champions League final defeat last month.
Mane has proved a consistent attacking threat since joining from Southampton in 2016, and the Senegal international was instrumental in Liverpool's run to the Champions League final last season.
"I am very happy in Liverpool and my contract will last for three more years," Mane told Austrian newspaper Salzburger Nachrichten.
"But you never know what will happen in the future. I want to win trophies, especially the Champions League."
Mane levelled the scores for Liverpool in the Champions League final but could not prevent his side slipping to a 3-1 defeat to Madrid in Kiev.
The former Metz and Red Bull Salzburg winger admits he found it hard to put the defeat behind him but he has now turned his focus to the World Cup in Russia with Senegal.
"To be honest, this defeat was not easy to put away. The whole club worked hard for this Champions League title, but Real Madrid were the better team that day," he said.
"We lost to the best team in the world. The defeat is ticked off. Now it is time to play with Senegal (and have) a good and successful World Cup. That's my whole focus."
