Thomas Tuchel lifts the lid on what Sadio Mane is really like after Leroy Sane fight

Thomas Tuchel has leapt to the defence of Sadio Mane after his fight with Leroy Sane, labelling the suspended Bayern Munich star a "top professional".

Mane was involved in a dressing room spat with Sane shortly after Bayern's Champions League defeat by Manchester City at the Etihad. The duo engaged in an on-field argument that continued after full-time, with the former Liverpool star allegedly striking his teammate in the face.

Mane has been banned for Bayern's Bundesliga clash with Hoffenheim, with Sane reportedly telling club officials not to throw the book at his teammate and for them to all put the episode behind them.
