Borussia Dortmund CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke has hit back at criticism of Sadio Mane's decision to move to the Bundesliga.
Former Liverpool forward Dean Saunders questioned the move, accusing Mane of wasting his best years by leaving the Premier League. The Senegal international has spent six years at Anfield, winning everything there is to win in the club game, but opted to join Bayern in a deal worth up to £35.1m.
"I want to achieve a lot with this club, in Europe too," Mane said after joining the 2020 Champions League winners. And, despite Saunders' claims, Watzke has restated the strength of the Bundesliga and the recent failings of Premier League clubs on the continent.
