The 19-year-old, who has been a revelation for Sporting's B team in the Portuguese second tier and played for them in the NextGen club tournament, has a £1million buy-out clause in his contract.
Mane has been on Sporting's books since the age of seven and made his first-team debut last month. He has played for Portugal at every age-group level from Under-15s to Under-19s.
The Old Trafford giants have a happy history with buying teenage midfielders from Sporting, they snapped up an 18-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo in 2003.
