Sadio Mane has commenced his German lessons as he continues his recuperation from an injury, he suffered days before the World Cup.

Mane swapped Liverpool for Bayern Munich in the summer after spending six successful seasons with the Anfield outfit.

It was initially hoped that the former Liverpool star would feature in the global football showpiece, only for further examinations of his injury to see him ruled out of the competition.

According to Bayern's official Twitter handle, Mane, who is currently recovering from an injury he sustained to his right fibula, is making judicious use of his time on the sidelines as he takes his German lessons to the next level.

In a video shared on social media, seen by Sports Brief, the reigning African footballer of the year is captured going through the paces with his lessons.

He went ahead to speak a couple of phrases in German to show how far he has gone with his Deutsch lessons despite admitting the difficulty in learning the new language.
