“I’m fully focused on Saturday’s game, that’s the answer I have to give before the final. But come back to me on Saturday and I’ll give you the answer. It’s special, ”said Sadio Mané last Friday, on the eve of the Champions League final. A final lost by the Reds, beaten 1 to 0 by Real Madrid, and which was certainly the last game of the Senegalese in the jersey of Liverpool. Indeed, the 30-year-old striker wants to leave the residents of Anfield after six years of good and loyal service. He would have even announced his decision to his teammates after the meeting on Saturday evening at the Stade de France. According to AS, Mané would have confided: “I want to thank the fans for everything and the coach too. I wish this team all the best in the world.” The former FC Metz will therefore bid farewell to the Mersey club this summer. And if Jürgen Klopp refused to comment on the rumors surrounding a departure of his player, he still admitted: “This is not the right time to talk about it. Wherever Sadio plays next year, he will be a great player.” Where will the winner of CAN 2022 continue his career?
According to information from the Mirror, five teams can recruit Sadio Mané, who was sad during the parade of players yesterday. A list of prestigious contenders where we find Real Madrid, FC Barcelona, AC Milan, Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich. But it is the Germans who are ahead on this issue, even if Bayern are wary of Real Madrid while PSG seem out of the race since Leonardo’s departure. Sky Germany explains that the residents of the Allianz Arena would have offered a 3-year contract to the player, who opened the door to a departure this summer because Liverpool were in particular more concerned about the extension of Mohamed Salah than his. His agent thus met Hasan Salihamidzic in Mallorca to discuss and move forward. Oliver Kahn (CEO) and his predecessor Karl-Heinz Rummenigge were also on Saturday at the Stade de France to observe the Senegalese. The German media adds that the Bavarians intend to offer 30 million euros to buy out the last year of Sadio Mané’s contract. Five to ten million euros in bonuses should be put on the table to convince the Reds. Which is more or less close to the requirements of the English, who claim 35M£, or just over 41 million euros for their player according to the Daily Mail. But The Sun speaks of 58 million euros.
