Sadio Mane’s PR agent claims his client’s £35.1m move to Bayern Munich was NOT down to salary demands as he says rumours over low Liverpool wages are ‘false’… and he refuses to reveal the ‘other very big clubs’ who were trumped by German giants!
- Sadio Mane has left Liverpool after six years for Bayern Munich in a £35.1m deal
- The Senegalese was keen for a new challenge away from the Premier League
- The 30-year-old signs a three-year contract worth £250,000-a-week in Germany
Sadio Mane‘s PR agent has dismissed suggestions that the 30-year-old’s departure from Liverpool was due to his wage demands.
Mane completed his £31.5m move to Bayern Munich last week and some fans believe money was the primary reason behind the switch.
However, representative Bacary Cisse insists that is not the case.
Mane has put pen to paper on a three-year deal worth £250,000-a-week at the Allianz Arena
‘Those are false rumours,’ Cisse told TV5Monde. ‘We didn’t want to talk about that. A player of Sadio’s calibre can’t be earning the salary that people are speaking about. The numbers circulating are completely wrong.
‘Sadio was already earning more than that when he joined Liverpool from Southampton. He extended his contract in 2018 and his salary was much higher than the numbers circulating in the media.’
‘He won everything with Liverpool and it was time to seek a new challenge elsewhere,’ Cisse added.
‘Bayern’s project was very attractive. Bayern came knocking. Sadio, his German agent Bjorn Bezemer and I had a discussion.
‘Many other very big clubs, that I won’t name, wanted Sadio, but when we saw Bayern’s project we said, ‘That’s it, we have to go there’.
‘The coach [ Julian Nagelsmann ] and the sporting director of Bayern [Hasan Salihamidzic] travelled personally to Liverpool, there was a very good meeting in Sadio’s house and we discussed the contract.’
