Sadio Mane has emerged as the top transfer target for Real Madrid ahead of this summer’s transfer window if reports emanating from Spain are anything to go by.

It was revealed that Mane has replaced Paris Saint Germain (PSG) star Kylian Mbappe as the top target for the Spanish giants.

Real Madrid will rebuild their squad this summer after a disastrous season which has seen them drop out of all the three competitions namely the Champions League, Spanish La Liga and the Spanish Copa Del Rey.

The Los Merengues have already lured club legend Zinedine Zidane back to the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu for his second spell.
