Mane was also in impressive form last season in the Premier League ending as one of the three golden boot winners which included Mohamed Salah and Pierre Aubameyang.
Real Madrid look set to lose Gareth Bale and James Rodriguez, and Los Blancos' chiefs are now planning to lure Sadio Mane to Spain.
But the Spanish club will have to make a convincing bid for the possibility of Liverpool allowing the Senegalese to leave Anfield.
Mane is among the trusted strikers Jurgen Klopp have at Liverpool and his partnership with Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino has been superb.

According to the report by Le10Sport, Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane believes the pairing of Sadio Mane and Karim Benzema will be good for his squad.
There are even reports that Zinedine Zidane has spoken with Sadio Mane himself with the hope of convincing him to make a move to Spain.
Los Blancos are in the process of consolidating their players as Karim Benzema signed a new one year contract deal at the Bernabeu which will make him remain at the club until the end of 2021/22 League season.
