Former Liverpool striker Sadio Mane is expected to depart Bayern Munich after just one year this summer - with his wage demands potentially bringing about a Premier League return.
Mane called time on his trophy-laden spell at Anfield last summer. The Senegalese’s departure created a hole that has taken some time to fill for the Reds going forward as they missed his dynamic play for much of the current campaign.
But while he was feted at Liverpool, the 31-year-old has struggled at the reigning Bundesliga champions this season, starting just one of their last 11 games and having come under the spotlight for an ugly dressing room confrontation with team-mate Leroy Sane last month following a 3-0 Champions League defeat at the hands of Manchester City.
