Zinedine Zidane reportedly wants to replace Eden Hazard at Real Madrid.
According to Todo Fichajes, the Frenchman wants to bring in Sadio Mane in place of Hazard.
Mane has transformed himself into a world-beater at Liverpool, becoming one of their star players and winning major honours. He is regarded as one of Premier League’s very best wingers and for good reason.
The Senegal international scores regularly, plays a huge part in the team’s buildup and also pressing the opposition in their own half. His skill, consistency and industry makes him an attractive prospect for any club out there.
Unfortunately, signing him would be no easy task. Mane is 28 now and enjoying the peak of his career. Liverpool will in no sense be interested in selling him even if they have lost star players before.
The likes of Philippe Coutinho, Raheem Sterling, Luis Suarez, Fernando Torres, Javier Mascherano and Xabi Alonso departed when Liverpool were much less of a threat in Europe. Now, they are serious contenders across all competitions under Jurgen Klopp.
Real’s chances of signing Kylian Mbappe might be higher than Sadio Mane. But is it too soon to call it quits with Eden Hazard. The Belgian’s fitness has been a bit of an issue but he might surprise fans this season.
