During his time with Liverpool, all you could hear or read about Sadio Mane was positive. Hard working, in great form, modest, humble, great contributor in his native Senegal…but as soon as he switched over last season to Munich, the world saw a different side of the player. It’s fair to say that Mane didn’t enjoy a good season. He got injured, missed whole World Cup in Qatar, gradually got into form at Bayern, but wasn’t used as often as he thought he would, confronted coach Julian Nageslmann (per report) and then, as finale, punched his teammate in the face. Mane, Sane and Gnabry heading for exit, as Laimer arrives from LeipzigMane was involved in a post-match bust-up with his colleague Leroy Sane, after a painful 3-0 loss to Manchester City, and the Senegalese forward was given a 300.000 fine, the biggest in Bayern’s history and one match ban. Currently on vacation in native Senegal, former Liverpool player talked about the incident. “This kind of things can happen. It happened. We were able to solve this small problem. Sometimes it’s good to solve problems, but maybe not in this way. It’s behind us now. We’ll try to fight together to help the club achieve its goals next season. I’m on vacation with the family. It was a very complicated season, it happens. It wasn’t a surprise, I expected things to be a bit complicated. It’s normal” explained Mane. Fight! Mane throws punches at Sane in the dressing roomDue to his pure form, and certainly due to this incident, new coach Thomas Tuchel apparently put Sane and six other players on an unofficial transfer list, allowing them to leave, or for the club to sell them. However, the Senegalese is hoping to stay in Munich and do better in his second season. “I love challenges, and Bayern is a big challenge. It’s up to me to do everything to meet this challenge. ‘God willing. If everything goes well, I’m going to return to Bayern” said Mane. ##NAJAVA_MECA_7343844##
