Here is your Liverpool morning digest for Monday, 6 June.

Sadio Mane clarifies comments over Liverpool future in new interview

Sadio Mane insists Liverpool is a club he 'respects a lot' after he 'jokingly' made comments about what the people of Senegal want him to do about his future on Merseyside, writes Charlotte Coates .

Mane scored a hat-trick in Senegal's 3-1 win over Benin yesterday to become his country's all-time leading scorer. The Liverpool number 10's future was in doubt before the Champions League final loss to Real Madrid, as he said all would be revealed after the match. Although he is yet to directly tell the club of his wish, it is believed Mane wants to embark on a new challenge elsewhere.

But after Bayern legend Robert Lewandowski indicated that he could leave the Bavarian club this summer, Hainer has moved to reassure fans that they are ready to do whatever it takes to bring the right personnel to the Allianz Arena before the start of next season. Speaking to German media outlet BILD he said: "If we really want a player, we are able to get him, but he has to suit us."
