Jurgen Klopp has told Liverpool fans to “respect” Sadio Mane’s decision to leave for Bayern Munich, as he acknowledged the “significant” departure of one of the club’s “greatest ever players”.
Mane has brought a hugely successful six-year stay at Anfield to an end after completing a £35 million move to the Bundesliga champions. The forward was one of Klopp’s first signings in 2016 and scored 120 goals in 269 appearances for the Reds and goes down as a “legend” according to the German manager.
