Jurgen Klopp has been urged to hijack a possible move from Manchester United for Christopher Nkunku should he lose Sadio Mane during the summer transfer window. Mane only has 12 months left to run on his contract at Anfield as speculation over his future continues to mount.
A key player for Klopp and Liverpool over the last few seasons, Mane is understood to want a new challenge after the Reds were beaten in the Champions League showpiece last Saturday night - against Real Madrid - with German outfit Bayern Munich heavy favourites for his £30million signature.
Liverpool signed Luis Diaz from FC Porto during the January window. However, they are thought to be tracking yet another swoop in attacking quarters before allowing Mane to leave. Nkunku has been tipped as a target for Erik ten Hag and United as part of their rebuild.
