Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is reportedly considering a possible swap deal involving Sadio Mane and Vinicius Junior.
Mane has enjoyed the best season of his career with a total of 24 goals coming from 44 outings in the Premier League and Champions League, but that has only led to interest in the Senegal international.
Real Madrid are allegedly prepared to launch a big-money offer during the summer transfer window, and it appears that Klopp is preparing for any departure.
According to reports in Spain, the German is attempting to negotiate a potential exchange with Real youngster Vinicius Junior.
The 18-year-old has already made 25 appearances for Real, but it has been suggested that Zinedine Zidane is open to allowing the teenager to spend a loan spell at Anfield.
Real are unlikely to give the green light for the attacker to leave on a permanent basis.
