When you are paid a lot and you don’t establish yourself in the starting 11, maybe it’s time to go. When you play in only 38 games (not all as starter) and score 12 goals, along with six assists, maybe that’s not good enough for a certain team. And being involved in a bust-up with a teammate and being suspended by the club doesn’t help either. For Sadio Mane, there were much obstacles from the moment he signed for Bayern Munich. He was not a typical striker, he got injured before the World Cup and it took him much to get back to full fitness and above all, he was not happy for not being selected in the starting 11. It was written in German press that he even confronted the former coach Julian Nagelsmann in front of the full locker room for that reason, but the fight with Leroy Sane was the final straw.🎙️ Bacary Cissé, Sadio Mané’s PR manager, on the incident with Leroy Sané: “Everyone with a knowledge of European football knows that Sané is a very condescending guy, while Sadio is very calm and has shown that everywhere he played. Sané has exceeded the limits.Many wrong… pic.twitter.com/C7SXVB0HLs— Transfer News Live (@DeadlineDayLive) August 6, 2023 Still, just days before making his wealthy transfer to Al-Nassr, where he will play alongside Cristiano Ronaldo, his PR made some stunning accusations against Bayern Munich, claiming that basically the German public was against the idea that an African footballer can earn so much money (he was among the highest paid players). “It wasn’t a footballing decision to sell him. Sadio’s salary bothered the Germans, they didn’t understand how an African joins the club and becomes the top earner ahead of everyone, so they wanted to get rid of him. They never called the player’s representatives. They never told Sadio face-to-face that they wanted to get rid of him. They just sent Thomas Tuchel to tell him that he will be a third choice left winger. Sadio has nothing to prove to the Germans. He didn’t become what he’s become thanks to Bayern. It was thanks to Liverpool. Bayern were ungrateful. They were paying an African all this money, and that hurt them” he told After Foot RMC.Goodbye Munich, hello Cristiano: Mane joins Ronaldo at Al-NassrBacary Cisse than continued and explained his (and presumable player’s version) of the transfer to Al-Nassr. “He was professional until the end. But the people in charge at Bayern weren’t fair. They first leaked to the media they were ready to sell him for 20 million euros. But after he returned to training and they saw he was doing well, they raised the price to 30 million euros. Sadio didn’t steal his money. From the first meeting with Bayern, he gave them his word that he would join, without talking about the salary. His representatives negotiated that salary for him” said Cisse.Mane opens up about his fight with SaneThese interesting quotes are yet to be commented by any of the Bayern officials. It’s also interesting that Sadio Mane talked to Sky Sports Germany just before he left the club and said nothing similar to this. So why the sudden change?##NAJAVA_MECA_7414046##
