  • Robert Lewandowski's family cannot understand why Bayern Munich have refused to let their kin leave despite getting Sadio Mane in similar circumstances
  • Mane quit Liverpool and he was signed for a lower figure than what Bayern Munich are demanding for the sale of Lewandowski
  • Mane had one year left on his Liverpool contract, the same as Lewandowski, who wants to leave this summer

The saga around Robert Lewandowski and Bayern Munich is far from over, with the latter holding its ground over a possible exit.

Lewandowski had made it clear that he wanted to leave Allianz Arena this summer, but Bayern have refused to budge unless they get an offer of at least 50 million euros.

The Polish striker wishes to join Barcelona, but the Blaugrana have seen three offers rejected so far. Lewandowski's inner circle cannot understand why the club negotiated to buy Sadio Mane for approximately 30 million euros but are holding firm on the striker.

Mane's situation at Liverpool was similar to Lewandowski's. One year remaining on the contract and a star player who wants to quit the club.

The BILD reports that former Bayern Munich president Uli Hoeness is the stumbling block to Lewandowski's wishes. The former head honcho still holds a considerable amount of influence and has refused to play ball on any figure less than 50 million euros.

Franck Ribery is confident Sadio Mane will be a big hit for Bayern Munich

Sports Brief had also reported that Bayern Munich legend Franck Ribery has hailed Sadio Mane's summer move to the Bundesliga as "a great transfer."

Mane dumped Liverpool this summer with a year left on his contract with the Reds, a move that ended his six-year stay at Anfield. The Senegalese winger initially hinted at a possible exit, revealing that he would decide on his future with Liverpool after last season's Champions League final with Real Madrid.

Ribery, a Bayern icon, has now delved into Mane's sensational summer move to the Bundesliga, with the Frenchman describing the move as "great."
