Sadio Mane is on the verge of joining Al-Nassr from Bayern Munich in a move that would see him join Cristiano Ronaldo up front for the Saudi Arabian side
Sadio Mane is set to become teammates with Cristiano Ronaldo after agreeing to join Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League.
Mane has long been linked with a move away from Bayern Munich after just one season. Having been signed from Liverpool for £35.1million last summer to replace goal machine Robert Lewandowski, Mane managed just seven Bundesliga goals in 25 appearances.
He also struggled with injury and was suspended by the club in April after allegedly punching teammate Leroy Sane following Bayern’s 3-0 loss to Manchester City in the Champions League. And L’Equipe report that Mane is now on the verge of joining Ronaldo at Al-Nassr.
It is claimed the player has an agreement in principle with the Saudi club, but the deal is ‘not yet fully concluded’. The move would see him lead the line alongside Ronaldo, who joined Al-Nassr back in January after his contract with Manchester United was terminated following an explosive interview with Piers Morgan.
