FC Bayern Munich signs Sadio Mané.
The last details should be clarified in the coming week, after which there will probably be a big idea.
Munich – Sadio Mané becomes a Munich!
The change to FC Bayern is almost fixed, Liverpool FC accepted the latest offer from sports director Hasan Salihamidzic: 32 million euros will be transferred to England, nine more could follow with bonuses.
The German champions have managed a real coup, with Mané a world star is moving to the Bundesliga.
The Senegalese has been one of the best offensive players on the planet for years.
After Metz, Salzburg, Southampton and Liverpool, it's now off to the Bavarian capital, Munich.
Sadio Mané before moving to Bayern Munich
The Bayern bosses had been courting the 30-year-old for a long time, but Salihamidzic was finally able to convince Liverpool's sports director Julian Ward.
Mané had been in agreement long before that.
Brazzo lured him with the prospect of being the big star of a big team - and he succeeded.
Although the LFC was not particularly enthusiastic about the first offers, a solution was ultimately found.
It is quite possible that Thiago's move in the summer of 2020 also played a role in the Mané deal.
Back then, Bayern didn't put any obstacles in the way of their midfielder and made a relatively silent exit possible.
Now the Reds have come a little accommodating to Bayern at Mané after initially demanding 50 million euros for their star striker.
Sadio Mané is eagerly awaited in Munich.
FC Bayern and FC Liverpool have apparently agreed on a change.

Sadio Mané: Bayern performance in the Allianz Arena?
Will he also answer in German?
Mané speaks the language, learned it during his time in Salzburg, where he played from 2012 to 2014.
He shouldn't have any communication problems in Munich anyway, since his native language is French and it is known to be spoken by a number of players in the Bayern squad.
So everything is prepared for the big transfer.
Another newcomer is already in Munich, but is unlikely to cause a sensation for a few years.
We are talking about the "new Luka Modric" - Lovro Zvonarek.
