They wouldn’t have been able to get the £100m+ each for them like it was reported but I honestly think they would have been able to get £20m+ more than they’ll be able to get now. Reports are saying Bayern are going to offer £30m for Mane and unless their recruitment is on point, I can’t see how they’ll be able to replace his output for a similar amount.
6 of L’pool’s starting 11 are 28+ and considering the intensity of Klopp’s tactics and the fact that they’ve been playing 50+ games a season for the last 3 seasons, they need to refresh the squad. FSG aren’t gonna give a war chest so I think they needed to start selling and replacing players from about 2 seasons ago.
