Bayern Munich chief Hasan Salihamidzic has detailed how the idea to sign Sadio Mane emerged from a meeting over Serge Gnabry's contract extension - from his garden.
Mane has left Liverpool to join the German giants in a deal which could rise to £35.1million. The Reds ace hinted before last month's Champions League final that his future could lie away from Anfield and, since then, it's progressed rapidly.
Now Bayern's bosses have lifted the lid on how the move came about. Salihamidzic and technical director Marco Neppe were in a meeting with Gnabry's agency ROOF - the same agent as Mane's.
