According to 90min, Bayern Munich forward Sadio Mane has agreed a deal in principle to join Saudi Pro League side Al Nassr.

The former Liverpool star has been one of the more high-profile players linked with a move to the Middle East this transfer window. The 31-year-old Senegal captain is coming off the back of a rather underwhelming debut season with the Bavarians, scoring 12 goals in 38 games across all competitions.

The move comes as a major U-turn, with Mane stressing that he would not consider a move to Saudi Arabia even as recently as a fortnight ago. The 2022 Africa Cup of Nations winner with the Lions of Teranga also fell out with the club’s board and some of his teammates in the wake of a reported physical altercation with Leroy Sané.

Mané’s €300.000 weekly wages were also seen as a burden by Bayern, who were willing to listen to offers for their No. 17. Cristiano Ronaldo, Marcelo Brozovic, and Seko Fofana also feature for Al Nassr.
