Sadio Mane continued his hot streak of form in front of goal for new club Bayern Munich this season as he established himself as the team’s leading scorer this term
Bayern Munich boss Julian Nagelsmann has explained how he has played Sadio Mane in his Liverpool position after Jurgen Klopp admitted that the Senegalese forward was “missed” at Anfield.
Mane joined Bayern Munich in a £35.1million agreement from the Reds this summer. The experienced forward pulled the curtain down on six trophy-laden seasons at Anfield after making it clear he wanted a new challenge.
The 30-year-old bagged his 11 th goal for his new club on Saturday despite being foiled from the penalty spot by visiting goalkeeper Robin Zentner. But he reacted quickest to get to the rebound and made no mistake to make it 3-0 for the Bavarian side two minutes before the break.
Bayern eventually ran out 6-2 victors in the tie, with Mane also providing two assists and he is now the highest scorer for Nagelsmann’s side this campaign â with his 11 edging out the 10 scored by each of Jamal Musiala and Leroy Sane.
