Samuel Osei Kuffour has weighed in on Sadio Mane's arrival at German outfit Bayern Munich.

Mane ended his six-year stint with Liverpool this summer, joining the Bavarian giants on a three-year deal.

According to Osei Kuffour, Sadio's move to Bayern will canvas a lot of support from Africa

“I think Sadio Mane moving to Germany will also bring most of the African countries to support Bayern Munich," he said as quoted by Football Ghana.

"When I was playing for Bayern, Ghanaians supported the club because of me so I think Senegal, Mali and others will support [Bayern]. So, it’s a huge step, it is good for Sadio as well”

The 45-year-old retired defender argues Mane was not given the best of treatment by Liverpool, forcing the Senegalese to consider options despite having a year left on his deal with the Reds.

“If I am working with you and you feel I am living up to expectations, you change the contract. So, I will not blae Mane’s manager, I will rather blame Liverpool because they should have changed his contract, it happened to me on many occasions."

Kuffour, who made almost 250 appearances for Bayern Munich, believes Sadio Mane's departure will be Liverpool's loss.

"During my time with Bayern, they changed my contract because of my performance. So why can’t Liverpool do same if they think Mane is so important to the team.”

Asked if he can help Bayern, he said, “Oh yes, he is a machine, he never gets tired and I think Liverpool will regret losing him, they didn’t treat him well”
