Mane 'on Verge' of Sealing Bayern Switch

Sadio Mane is reportedly close to signing for Bayern Munich from Liverpool, as per Sky Sports.

The German giants are preparing an improved offer in line with the Reds' valuation which is £42.5m.

MirrorSport also understand that Hasan Salihamidžić, Bayern’s Sporting Director, leads the team which arrives in the north west this morning, and will enter talks with his counterpart at Anfield Julian Ward.

Earlier, Bayern Munich have sent a delegation to England to thrash out a deal for Sadio Mane.

And that will finally pave the way for the Senegal star to get his wish and leave Liverpool to join the German giants.

We understand that Hasan Salihamidžić, Bayern’s Sporting Director, leads the team which arrives in the north west this morning, and will enter talks with his counterpart at Anfield Julian Ward.

Mane made clear after the Champions League final he wanted to leave the Reds, after discussions over a new contract broke down, as the club insisted they would not break their wage structure.

Bayern pursued the player towards the end of the campaign, and made two formal bids for Mane - who has a year remaining on his Liverpool contract - with both rejected out of hand.
