Sadio Mane is leaving Liverpool after the Reds agreed to sell him to Bayern Munich for £35.1million.
Liverpool accepted Bayern’s third offer of £27.5million up front plus £7.6million in add-ons during face-to-face talks between the clubs yesterday to bring to an end Mane’s successful six years at Anfield. Liverpool’s sporting director Julian Ward agreed the terms with his Bayern counterpart Hasan Salihamidzic, who flew to Merseyside yesterday to clinch the transfer.
The Reds dismissed Bayern’s opening bids of £25million and £30million, which included the fanciful add-ons of them winning three successive Champions Leagues and Mane three consecutive Ballon d’Ors.
