Bayern Munich Sign Sadio Mane from Liverpool in £35m deal

--Advertisements--

Sadio Mane has completed a £35m move from Liverpool to join Bayern Munich on a three-year contract.

The Reds will receive 32m euros (£27.4m) with an additional 6m euros based on appearances, plus 3m euros for individual and team achievements.

Liverpool turned down two bids from Bayern before the two clubs settled on a move for the Senegal forward, who was under contract until next summer.

The 30-year-old joined Liverpool for £34m from Southampton in June 2016.

Mane helped Liverpool win the Champions League and the Premier League, and in February scored the winning penalty as Senegal won the Africa Cup of Nations for the first time.

“With his outstanding performances and his great successes at the highest international level over many years, there are very few players like him in the world,” added Bayern’s chief executive Oliver Kahn.

“We’re sure that Sadio Mane will delight our fans in the coming years with his spectacular style of play. He’s ambitious and eager to win more titles. This package is very strong. With players like him at FC Bayern, all the biggest goals are possible.”
