FC Bayern continues to work on a transfer from Liverpool star Sadio Mané. The Munich company has allegedly already set possible framework conditions for the deal internally. The sale of a national player could end up flushing the necessary funds into the coffers.
Will FC Bayern get another dream player? Now that the record champions’ interest in Liverpool’s Sadio Mané has been documented and confirmed by various media in England and Germany, negotiations between the clubs are now pending. In charge on the Munich side: Hasan Salihamidzic.
As “Sky” reports, the responsibility for the transfer lies entirely in the hands of the sports director. Salihamdzic “absolutely” wants to bring the Senegalese to the Isar, reports the broadcaster. The head of sports is backed by coach Julian Nagelsmann, who, according to “Sky”, is behind the project and is privy to Mané’s plans.
Will FC Bayern pay 40 million euros for Mané?
At the weekend, those responsible took another close look at what Sadio Mané can give the FC Bayern team.
Both CEO Oliver Kahn and ex-boss Karl-Heinz Rummenigge were seen at the Champions League final at the Stade de France. It is not known whether the duo also took the opportunity to talk to those responsible for Liverpool.
For this, “Sky” wants to know how the people of Munich imagine the framework conditions of a transfer.
Mané is said to be offered a three-year contract until 2025. There is a fixed transfer fee of 30 million euros in the room. Another five to ten million euros could be added in the form of bonus payments. This is said to be the subject of haggling behind the scenes these days.
FC Bayern does not see Mané as a Lewandowski replacement
In order to raise the necessary millions for the Mané deal, FC Bayern could part ways with national player Serge Gnabry this summer.
The winger recently received an offer to extend his contract including an annual salary of 19 million euros. According to the “kicker”, Gnabry has still not accepted this offer. If no agreement is reached, Gnabry should be sold, the newspaper writes.
The possible Mané deal is not linked to the future of Robert Lewandowski. On the Isar, they see the Senegalese, who are also being courted by other top clubs such as Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain, as a complement to the world footballer, not as a replacement.
