The next Sadio Mane? Liverpool make their move for teenage Senegalese winger as Reds look to future

<p>French journalist Nabil Djellit reports that Liverpool's scouts were impressed by the 16-year-old winger's performances in the Under-17 Africa Cup of Nations held earlier this year. The diminutive winger is currently on the books at Senegalese club Diambars FC. Should he complete the move to Merseyside, he will join Liverpool's academy setup.</p><p></p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="fr" dir="ltr">Info : Liverpool a flashé lors de la dernière <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/CANU17?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#CANU17</a> sur Sidy Barhama Ndiaye.

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The move will likely invoke comparisons to Sadio Mane. Ndiaye's compatriot played 269 games and scored 120 goals for the Reds. If the youngster can provide even a fraction of that output if his number is called for the first team, it will be €1m well spent. </p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Liverpool have been active in the transfer market already this summer, completing moves for <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/jeremie-frimpong-reveals-message-agent-liverpool-complete-eur35m-signing-trent-alexander-arnold-replacement-bayer-leverkusen/blt55088b7f07f925a7" target="_self">Jeremie Frimpong</a> and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/liverpool-agree-gbp100m-florian-wirtz-gbp16m-in-add-ons-revealed/blt7f07c46e90282564" target="_self">Florian Wirtz,</a> both of whom join from Bayer Leverkusen. Alongside those big name signings, the Reds have also looked to the future, snapping up 20-year-old Hungarian keeper <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/liverpool-complete-summer-signing-not-florian-wirtz-milos-kerkez-goalkeeper-armin-pecsi/bltebdb0dccc5ae084b" target="_self">Armin Pesci</a> on a five-year deal. </p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Arne Slot and the Liverpool top brass refuse to rest on their laurels after their Premier League winning season. It is expected that Bournemouth left back Milos Kerkez will complete his transfer to the Anfield-club in the next few days. </p>
