Sadio Mane to Reunite With Former Liverpool Teammate As Bayern’s Exit Looms

• Sadio Mane could depart Bayern Munich this summer
• The Bayern forward could be on the move to Saudi Arabia
• Mane was voted the biggest Bundesliga flop by 47.1 percent of players last season

Bayern Munich forward, Sadio Mane could be set to leave the Allianz Arena after just one season with the Bundesliga champions.

The Senegalese forward's debut campaign in Germany didn't go fully to plan despite the team's success.

Mane found the net just 12 times in 38 appearances and was suspended in April after a confrontation with team-mate, Leroy Sane.

There have been reports that Bayern could be willing to listen to offers for the 31-year-old just 12 months on from splashing out £25 million to sign him from Liverpool.

Mane to join Saudi league?

According to reports from transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano, initial talks and approaches with the Saudi teams have taken place, but they are only at an early stage.

Mane would become the latest in a long list of names to join the Saudi Pro League this summer if he was to move on from Bayern.

The likes of Karim Benzema, N'Golo Kante, and Ruben Neves have all already moved to the division, with several more names expected to follow suit in what are turning out to be mega-money moves.

Al-Ahli are said to be one club interested in signing the Senegalese forward, wanting to reunite him with former Liverpool team-mate, Roberto Firmino, who joined earlier this week.

Mane was voted Bundesliga flop of the season by the players themselves last term in a poll carried out by Sky Germany, as quoted by Givemesport.

He received 47.1 percent of the vote, with second-place Joshua Kimmich picking up 7.1 percent from his colleagues.

If he doesn't leave, he could yet be given a chance to redeem himself at Bayern under Thomas Tuchel, who led the side to Bundesliga success for the 11th year in a row.

With the potential arrival of Harry Kane, a sale of Mané would not only free up more money for Bayern to use but it will also free up space for attacking options.

Mane excited after winning Bundesliga

Sports Brief previously reported Mane shared his excitement after Bayern Munich won the Bundesliga on the final day of the season.

On a dramatic day in the German league, Bayern needed a win against Koln with the hope that Borussia Dortmund would slip at home to Mainz.

Having taken the lead through Kingsley Coman, the Bavarians were pegged back with nine minutes remaining after Dejan Ljubicic levelled for the hosts from the spot.

With Dortmund losing 2-1 in the other game, the Black and Yellows were set to be crowned champions. However, their dreams were dashed after Jamal Musiala netted a late winner for Bayern Munich.
