Is he coming, isn't he coming? FC Bayern is all about Liverpool superstar Sadio Mané these days. Now coach Julian Nagelsmann has probably been able to convince the Sengalese on the phone. The striker said very clear words, but the fee is still a sticking point.
According to Sky information, Bayern Munich's head coach Julian Nagelsmann called the courted Liverpool star Sadio Mané. The Senegalese showed no airs and graces and left a lasting impression. Accordingly, Mané, who is considered to be very modest and is also revered as a national hero in his homeland because of his social commitment, has also shown himself to be very flexible. When asked in which position he sees himself, he is said to have answered that he plays where he is needed. "Mané wants to go to Bayern Munich and has clearly signaled in the talks: I just want to move to Munich," said the Sky report.
According to media reports, Liverpool FC recently rejected a second offer from Bayern Munich for Mané. The German soccer record champion is said to have increased his first offer from 25 million to 30 million pounds (around 35 million euros) including bonus payments. This fee for the 30-year-old attacker should contain bonuses of up to 7.5 million euros.
The Liverpool Premier League club coached by Jürgen Klopp still considers the offer to be too low and is particularly bothered by the fact that the conditions for the bonus payments offered are unrealistic, it said. The newspaper "The Times" wrote that Liverpool only wanted to enter into negotiations with the Munich team if they bid for 42.5 million pounds (about 50 million euros). The Reds are also ready to accommodate Bayern.
Mané's move to Munich has been speculated for weeks. The African is being traded as a potential successor to Serge Gnabry, whose future in Munich remains uncertain. Mané could also replace goalgetter Robert Lewandowski, who is willing to change. Mané's contract at Liverpool runs until June 30, 2023.
