The Senegalese international Sadio Mane is reportedly said to be ready to leave Liverpool for Bayern Munich. As the Premier League Giants have already rejected two bids for Mane, reports claim Liverpool are expecting the Bungesliga Champions to return with an offer closer to their asking price this week.

The Reds are set to announce the £85 million signing of Darwin Nunez from Benfica in replacement of Mane. But they are still said to be holding out for a deal worth around £40 million for Mane.

After six years at Anfield, Liverpool’s No. 10 looks set for a new challenge, jokingly telling reporters he “will do what the Senegalese want” while on international duty earlier this month.

And it seems Senegal manager Aliou Cisse is one of those hoping a deal is wrapped up in the near future, claiming Mane “will feel best” at Bayern.

“I tell my boys to try to work out the contract issues so that when their respective championships resume, they will have already found a base.” Cisse told reporters, as per Goal.

“I heard about Sadio at Bayern. For me it is a club that is of its standing. Bayern is intense, pressing football with a German coach.

“Sadio played in Salzburg in Austria which is a border country, and that means he is not going into unknown territory.

“For me, the club where he will feel the best is Bayern.”

Reports suggest Mane will become one of Bayern’s highest-paid players. And he could be their star replacement for talisman Robert Lewandowski, who is also seeking a move this summer.
