Anyone have any idea why Mane hasn't signed a new deal yet?
Is he looking to leave like Can, by running his contract down?
I really hope he signs and stays!
He looks happy and is performing well, so fingers crossed.

Mane still has over 2.5 years left on his current contract.

When you look at the new contracts being offered to and signed by some of the important players, it's just slightly worrying that he hasn't yet.
I mean, Gomez only signed a new contract last year and is in the process of being offered a new deal.
Firmino has signed again.
There was news that Mane had been offered a deal in the summer, but no news of it being signed yet.

Two and a half years, crazy for anyone to be worried about this.

Says you big Emre, you filthy contract rebel ha ha ha.

Some folks ain't happy until they've got something to panic about.

Lol FTR, exactly mate. I'd of thought people would just enjoy the moment, what we're going through is nothing short of fantastic.
Contracts these days mean bugger all anyway! time to forget it and let the club do their job, Mane I have no doubts will sign a new contract when he/ the club are ready. In the meantime forget all of the negativity and enjoy what we have right now! which is a squad capable of winning that bloody title!, that's all what matters to me, the here and now, the future doesn't exist yet so we shouldn't worry about something what hasn't happened.

I was about to write exactly the same thing Salah, contracts mean nothing other than the player being guaranteed to earn a certain amount of money for a certain length of time.

I would be more worried if he doesn’t sign an extension next summer rather than worry about it right now. Pure speculation, but I would imagine any recently offered contract was probably not as lucrative advance say Salahs after his brilliant seasons and Mane wants the same. Hence a stalemate and Mane being challenged by the club to match Salahs feats to get a similar contract. A long shot but seems feasible in my head anyway. Mane is not short on confidence and I personally consider him to be a superior player to Salah.

We’d really, really, really like Sadio Mane to put pen to paper on a bumper new Liverpool deal.
He’s one of our most important players, was rewarded the no.10 this summer, has bagged 18 goals in his past 30 matches and has a brilliant offensive relationship with Roberto Firmino and Mo Salah.
But while his team-mates extended their deals earlier in 2018 and are contracted to the club until 2024 and 2023 respectively, Mane has yet to sign.
James Pearce of the Echo explained during a Q&A yesterday that at the moment, there’s nothing to worry about, as the Senegalese has two and half years left to run, but did indicate that it’s a situation that could become problematic eventually.
“Sadio Mane is under contract until 2021. Liverpool made it clear towards the end of last season that they would be willing to reward his progress with a new long-term deal and preliminary talks were opened, †Pearce said.
“Clearly, those discussions have yet to reach a conclusion but Liverpool don’t seem overly concerned about the situation. Mane is clearly happy at Anfield and the Reds have a good relationship with his agent Bjorn Bezemer.
“With Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino having penned new long-term contracts this year, Mane is the next priority.
“If the situation remains unresolved come next summer then a degree of concern would be understandable but I don’t see it as a big issue currently. â€
We imagine the current impasse is about money, as most contract debates are. Liverpool are surely willing to make Mane one of our highest paid players, in line with Mo and Bobby, but perhaps his agent is looking for more.
Perhaps the 26-year-old can prove he’s worth it in the coming months, which we’ll be delighted with.
Mane is worth a monstrous contract, and we think he’ll eventually sign one – but having witnessed what happened with Emre Can – it’s a little frustrating.

He couldn’t find a pen that was working.

He's out 5-6 weeks apparently - knee injury
Time for Gomez to step-up.

Could be, Jota.
Just the way that it is playing out with the limited information from various sources suggests it is total value of the deal only.
We didn't do anything for a year due to waiting for Bellingham then turned around and said he's too expensive. Yes he was, but we also could have bought him when he went abroad the first time but decided he was too much of a risk.
I'm not saying Lavia will turn out this way, but young midfield prospects seem to have certain value. There are obviously enough good attributes to suggest there is a great player in there and one that Klopp will be able to work with. He also fills a position that we now need to fill urgently.
I know Nett spend isn't all you can focus on, but when ours is so small especially over the whole period that Klopp has been here, it is a miracle he has had us achieving so much.
Now that a rebuild is required, the main factor is that we keep Klopp (at the moment) . Not saying he will walk, but you wouldn't be surprised if he came out said goodbye in the near future. Not saying that Lavia will be the reason, just maybe the final straw.
If it is just £2m-£3m then spend it. If it is also the payment structure, all info seems to suggest that a total package that guarantees £50m will get the signing done. Why mess about with silly add-ons rather that guaranteed add-ons to get the deal over the line.
We obviously have to see how this plays out one way or another. It's just frustrating!

When you are talking about multi-billion pound valuations of clubs and spending 10's or 100's of millions on players (whether singularly or for multiple players), to be apart in your valuation by £2m-£3m can be classed as penny-pinching. It is a label for a style of how you do business and it isn't a good look, especially when you know what the other club want and you have decided that this is the player you want. If you're going to offer £45m-£48m and lose out on your target for the sake of 5 times less than the value that you got for a player you were lucky to not have to let leave on a free transfer or let him run down his contract on vast wages - you have already saved much more than the £2m-£3m extra to fill a position we now desperately need filling.
Common Sense really when you think about it MK.

I know some will say that Lavia is not worth £50m. That may be true, but that is what Southampton value him at and do not have to let him leave if the buying team does not meet that valuation.
We clearly want him and are not that far apart (supposedly) on what they want compared to what we are offering to pay.
It's going to look ridiculous to miss out on him for the sake of £2m-£3m, especially when we got £10m more than what most thought Hendo was worth and probably £25m more than Fab was worth (considering how both looked like their legs had gone for about the last 18 months or so) .
Klopp wanted all transfers in before the season started, yet pre-season is over and we're still penny pinching for the area we desperately need an addition for.
Klopp isn't protecting FSG, but what he has achieved has helped mask the issues with player investment - especially if we actually want to be successful.
There are now rumours that he might walk next summer due to the continued lack of player investment.
We will lose more than the £2m-£3m if he does go. Surely it is worth paying the Lavia fee rather than this continued messing about?

I can't remember where I read this in the last couple of days, but you could see Nunez being very successful for Atletico Madrid under Simeone.
There is definitely a player in there and I remember how glad I was that we managed to sign him when he gave our defence tough games every time we faced him.
