Sadio Mane has said he is "convinced" Liverpool can win the Champions League under Jurgen Klopp this season.

Liverpool secured their passage into the last eight with a comfortable 5-0 aggregate win over Porto in the last round of Europe's premier competition.

The Reds will be in the hat for the quarter-final draw for the first time since 2009 and could be drawn against the likes of Real Madrid, Manchester City, Juventus or Roma in Friday's draw.

Bayern Munich are expected to be in the mix after their 5-0 win against Besiktas in the first leg, while Premier League champions Chelsea visit Barcelona on Wednesday with the tie poised delicately at 1-1.

Mane though says the Reds have no fear over their last-eight opponents and thinks the squad is good enough to win their sixth European title in Kiev on May 26.

"There are almost only top clubs left in the race," Mane said. "We are all aware that if you want to become a champion you must be champions.

"We've got the quality to beat every team in the world. And we'll try exactly that.

"Why should Liverpool not be on top in 2018? We want to win the Champions League. I am convinced we can do it for the first time since 2005."

One of the reasons for Mane's unshakable belief is the mouth-watering attacking football manager Klopp has his side playing at present.

Liverpool have rattled in 106 goals this season, with the forward line of Mane, Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah contributing nearly 70 of them.

The aggressive attacking play has drawn widespread plaudits outside of Anfield, and Mane says Klopp's approach is a key reason behind Liverpool's impressive performances.

Mane added: "It's a very intense game, permanently attacking. It's demanding for the opponent, but also for us. It's pure power.

"You can see the result this year. We score many, many goals. That's what Jurgen Klopp expects from us.

"Every player here loves Jurgen Klopp. He's always positive, passes on a lot of his power.

"He's a very special coach. I think he's one of the best. Every footballer would love to train under him."
