Newcastle United should ‘throw everything’ at signing former Liverpool forward Sadio Mane

Former Liverpool defender Glen Johnson believes Newcastle United should throw everything at signing Bayern Munich forward Sadio Mane this summer. The 31-year-old is reportedly top of Thomas Tuchel's transfer list at the Bundesliga side as he looks to reshape his squad for next season.

The Senegalese forward only signed for Bayern last summer for a reported fee of £35million, but recent reports in the Mail claim he could leave the club if an offer is tabled in the region of £25million. Mane scored seven goals in 25 league appearances during his first season back in Germany, but was involved in a bust up with team-mate Leroy Sane.

Mane is alleged to have punched Sane in the face after Die Roten were dumped out of the Champions League against Manchester City in April. The incident highlighted a clear divide in the camp at Bayern and came just a week after Tuchel's arrival.
