"The forward, who started and scored in Monday's 3-1 victory over Arsenal, has displayed minor symptoms of the virus but feels in good health overall Liverpool team-mate Thiago Alcantara tested positive for coronavirus earlier this week. Mane scored both goals in Liverpool's win over Chelsea before also netting against Arsenal
"However, like with Thiago Alcantara, Liverpool Football Club are - and will continue to - follow all protocols relating to Covid-19 and Mane will self-isolate for the required period of time."
Thiago missed the Arsenal game after his own positive test and he and Mane will be absent for Sunday's Premier League.
