Liverpool sporting director Julian Ward has asked Bayern Munich to forget about sending a delegation to England to discuss Sadio Mane’s transfer fee.
The Reds have so far turned down two offers from Bayern Munich for a striker.
According to The Times, the Germans initially offered £21 million plus £4.6 million in extras.
After Liverpool turned down the offer, the Bavarians raised their opening bid by £2.5m to a guaranteed reward of £23.5m and the additional bid by £2.5m to £6.5m. . This means that Bayern’s bid will only reach £30m if the Munich giants win the Champions League over the next three years and the Senegal international wins the Ballon d’Or in each of those seasons.
Ward wants £42.5m. He told Bayern there was no point in personal negotiations unless they were ready to make a serious offer to the 30-year-old.
