Sadio Mane looks glum at Liverpool trophy parade day after Champions League final lose ‘with winger now set to leave’
SADIO MANE looked a glum figure on Liverpool's open-top bus with his Reds future up in the air.
Jurgen Klopp's side are parading their League Cup and FA Cup trophies around Liverpool city centre today.
The Reds fell 1-0 to Real Madrid at the Stade de France in the Champions League final last night.
But despite their disappointment, Liverpool showed appreciation to their fans by sharing a trophy parade with them today.
With the mood understandably subdued after last night's defeat, Mane in particular was photographed looking less than enthused.
The Senegalese star has been linked with a move to Bayern Munich this summer after six years with the Reds.

“Wherever Sadio will play next season he will be a big player. Definitely.”
Mane did manage to crack a little smile during the parade - when it was his turn to hold a replica trophy.
