Sadio Mane reportedly wishes to fight for his future at Bayern Munich despite continuing to be linked with a move away from the club.
It was recently claimed the Liverpool legend has been deemed surplus to requirements at Bayern Munich, with Thomas Tuchel not viewing the jet-heeled winger as part of his long-term plans. This has opened the door for a transfer exit, with the Premier League expected to be his most likely destination.
But the Senegalese star is not yet ready to give up on his chances of being a success at Bayern, according to Fabrizio Romano, having only arrived in Bavaria one year ago.

Talks between Mane and his current employers are understood to have recently taken place, in an attempt to 'clarify' his future at the current Bundesliga leaders. Romano has stated the 31-year-old 'wants to stay' at Bayern as he aims to 'change his history' at the club next campaign.
After a bright start to life in Germany, the ex-Liverpool forward was sidelined for three months and has faced criticism from local media for his performances since returning to the team in February. He then hit the headlines for all the wrong reasons last month after punching Leroy Sane led to him serving an internal suspension, as well as being fined for his actions.
