Football's strangest transfer and contract clauses as Liverpool slam "joke" Sadio Mane bid

So it seems like Liverpool aren't too impressed with the package Bayern Munich put together to sign Sadio Mane. In fact, they think it's a "joke".

The forward seems to be the number one target for the German side, who could yet lose Robert Lewandowski this summer. Mane would be something of a replacement and the Bavarians want to take advantage of the fact he has a year remaining on his deal, leaving the Reds in a precarious position.

They offered an initial £23.5m, with additional add-ons of around £6.5m to take the total close to £30m. That is less than Liverpool signed him for, but the player's want to leave may yet force their hand. However they won't be letting him go on the cheap and they've taken issue with some of the add-ons.
