Former Tottenham striker Darren Bent has been speaking to the media about who could fill Mane's role at Liverpool.

Bent told reporters: "I don't think you can find a player to replace Mane directly because he is so good. But Luis Diaz is increasing the number of goals and assists, while Jota is also increasing the number of goals. He seemed to be forgotten at the end of last season and then he came out and made an impression.

"Firmino is still there, of course Salah's role is not in doubt, he has proved himself, so Liverpool will have a lot of different options up front."
