two prestigious clubs offer themselves to Sadio Mané

When he landed on the side of Bayern Munich for less than 33 million euros from Liverpool, Sadio Mané seemed to have made a very good choice. With Lewandowski leaving for Barcelona, ​​the Bavarians were looking for a new star in attack. The opportunity for the Senegalese star to finally be placed at the center of a project where he was a little in the shadows on the side of the Reds with Mohamed Salah. But since then, his season has looked like a bitter failure. However, everything had started well for him with a victory and a goal in the German Super Cup final against Leipzig. Several league goals followed but quickly, the case of Sadio Mané began to make people talk.

Used in a leading attacking role by Julian Nagelsmann, Sadio Mané quickly showed his limits in a position he does not really master. And after disappointing performances, the Senegalese international ended up disappearing altogether due to a knee injury that caused him to miss the World Cup with Senegal and the Champions League clash against PSG. And since his return from injury, nothing has gone right. Very little used by Thomas Tuchel, Sadio Mané was mainly talked about outside the field after his fight with Leroy Sané. The former Liverpool hit his teammate and was therefore sanctioned by his club with a suspension and a large fine.

Towards an Osimhen-Mané exchange?

Since then, the German press has explained that Bayern Munich is no longer betting on Sadio Mané at all and hopes to part with him this summer. And if Thomas Tuchel confided in a press conference to appreciate the player, the trend is indeed for a departure for the former FC Metz striker who can no longer shine on the pitch. This Wednesday, the German daily BILD also reveals that the Bavarian leaders hope to quickly find a way out for Mané. In this sense, two clubs have already shown interest. And the first is called… Chelsea.

Unsurprisingly, the leaders of the Blues, who spend lavishly (and without success so far), want to revive Mané and finally have an effective striker to lead the attack next season. Financially, the player will necessarily win just like Bayern Munich who could manage to draw a good price. But Chelsea, who must sell first, will have competition. In effect, BILD tells us that Naples is also on the file. An interest that suits Bayern Munich who wants to offer an exchange with… Victor Osimhen. The prolific Nigerian striker (21 goals in Serie A) is one of Bayern’s priorities as number 9 as we revealed to you. Sadio Mané could therefore help the German club to reduce the very high price of the former LOSC striker a little. But it remains to be seen whether the future Italian champions will be able to match Mané’s salary expectations.
