Bayern Munich chief holds talks with Sadio Mane amid barren run since Liverpool move

Bayern Munich's sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic has insisted he is not worried about Sadio Mane's slump in form since joining the Bundesliga champions earlier this summer and instead labelled him one of the 'best players in the world'.

After leaving Anfield after six wonderful years, where he won the Champions League, Premier League, FA Cup and League Cup., as well as the Club World Cup and the Super Cup, Mane has so far failed to live up to the heights that were expected of him in Munich.

Having scored in Bayern's 5-3 German Super Cup victory over RB Leipzig at the end of July and found the back of the net three times in his first three Bundesliga outings, the Senegal international has since only added to his tally once for his new club. That came in DFB-Pokal first-round tie against third division side Viktoria Köln.
