'No doubt about that' - Sadio Mane club status claim made ahead of Liverpool exit

Former Liverpool forward Neil Mellor says Sadio Mane will be regarded as a 'legend' of the football club as he prepares to depart for Bayern Munich.

The 30-year-old's six-year spell at Anfield will come to an end this summer as the Reds agreed a deal with the Bundesliga champions this week. Bayern will pay an initial £27.4m for Mane and a further £7.7m in potential add-ons.

The Senegalese made over 260 appearances for Liverpool since his arrival from Southampton in 2016 and Mellor believes he became a 'world class' player while on Merseyside.
