Mané joins Bayern, leaves as a ‘modern-day Liverpool icon’

Associated Press  

MUNICH — Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp described Sadio Mané as a “modern-day icon” of the English club after the Senegal forward’s move to Bayern Munich for 32 million euros was finalized on Wednesday. “One of Liverpool’s greatest ever players is leaving and we must acknowledge how significant this is.” The 30-year-old Mané has signed a contract with Bayern through June 2025 in a deal that could end up being worth 41 million euros depending on future achievements at the Bavarian powerhouse. The goals he scored, the trophies he won; a legend, for sure, but also a modern-day Liverpool icon.” Mané just completed what was arguably the best season of his career, converting the clinching penalty in a shootout to win the African Cup of Nations for Senegal, helping his country qualify for the World Cup, and starring for Liverpool in a campaign where the club nearly achieved an unprecedented quadruple of major trophies. Mané finished last season playing as Liverpool’s central striker, and scored 120 goals in 269 competitive appearances for the club after joining from Southampton in 2016.
