Bayern Ready To Offload Mane After One Season

Germany-based news sources claim that Bayern Munich is willing to let Sadio Mane go after just one season.

According to Kicker, Mane has already been notified by club authorities that they do not have any plans to use him in the upcoming season. With Saudi Arabia as a potential possibility, Bayern will now look for a way to get rid of the player that would satisfy both their need for compensation and the player’s wage expectations.

Mane left Liverpool for Bayern in the summer of 2017 and signed a three-year contract.

The Senegalese player, however, had a terrible season as a result of injury, which also negatively impacted his on-field performances and cost him the chance to represent his nation at a World Cup. In April, those resentments infamously burst out in Manchester when Mane punched teammate Leroy Sane in the changing room at the Etihad Stadium.

After a turbulent season in which they miraculously still won the Bundesliga, just seven goals constituted a poor return for a headline acquisition, and an exit is seen as advantageous to a club eager to rebuild.

Mane is the club’s highest-paid player, so his quick departure might offer Bayern some leeway in their pursuit of Harry Kane.
