Liverpool have accepted Bayern Munich’s latest offer for Sadio Mané and the forward is due to have a medical before signing a three-year contract. Bayern are paying a guaranteed £28m and the fee could reach £35m with add-ons.
Mané told Liverpool of his desire to leave soon after the Champions League final and made Bayern his preferred destination. Bids from the German club were turned down before a deal was reached on Friday. Bayern’s sporting director, Hasan Salihamidzic, confirmed the move to Sky Sports in Germany on Friday evening. “Yes, Sadio is coming to Bayern,” he said.
