Finally, Bayern Munich has confirmed Sadio Mane’s transfer from Liverpool.
The contract is valued £35,100,000.
The star striker landed in Bavaria from Mallorca on a private plane with his adviser Bjorn Bezemer on Tuesday, and then headed to the Barmherzige Bruder hospital for his physical.
Mane has signed a three-year, £250,000-per-week deal with the Allianz Arena, ending his six-year stint on Merseyside.
In his farewell interview with Liverpool, Mane said: ‘Obviously it is strange – really, really strange – to no longer be a Liverpool player after six years spent at Anfield.
‘But of course I had a great time, an unbelievable time, and since my first day I really, really enjoyed training, playing, at Anfield especially and in front of these amazing supporters. Now it’s come to the end, so what can you say?
‘I think whoever is leaving Liverpool, with those supporters you will always miss them because so far [they are] the best in the world and I have always said it.
‘Playing at Anfield I think always gives you so much power because of the fans. So, for sure I am going to miss you guys but anyway, I love you guys.
‘I would love one day to come back to Anfield to say hi to them and of course to watch Liverpool playing because for me, I am going to be Liverpool’s No.1 fan – after the supporters!’.
