When it comes to his future, Sadio said he would do what the people of his country wanted.
With 12 months left on his current deal, Sadio Mane has emerged as a summer transfer target for the Germans, who are readying a bid and a three-year contract for him.
He told Sky Sports News before the final that he would make a decision after the game. The 28-year-old broke his silence at a press conference ahead of the game.
"Like everyone else, I'm on social media and I see the comments," he said. Isn't it possible that between 60 to 70 percent of the people in the country want me to leave?
I will do what they ask of me. Soon, we will see. We'll see this together, so don't be rushed.
At the pre-match press conference in Paris, the manager was asked about the rumors, but he didn't say anything.
The boss said that Sadio will be a big player next year.
Sky Germany is reporting that there will be a bonus payment of between 5m and 10m and that the contract will be for five years.
It would take more than 30m to consider doing a deal with the Reds.
