According to The Times, Mane went to Spurs' Enfield training ground for talks over a potential move whilst he was still at Southampton.
However the club owner, Daniel Levy, failed to agree with Mane's wage demands.
Levy is notorious for driving a hard bargain and sticks to a strict wage structure within the club - but the missed target could prove costly.
Mane eventually signed for Liverpool in a £32million deal and he is earning his corn with 11 Premier League goals this season.
