Liverpool Forward Completes Move to Bayern: His Five Best Moments and More
Following a successful medical, Sadio Mane has officially been unveiled as a Bayern Munich player. The now-former Liverpool player will be a Bavarian until 2025, having signed a three-year deal with the German champs who will pay the Reds £35.1 million.
Without a doubt, Liverpool have lost one of the most important players of the Jurgen Klopp era. After joining the Reds as Klopp’s official first signing back in 2016, success soon followed for the African, his teammates, the manager, and the club.
It was not only about his goals and assists, but how perfectly well he translated the Gegenpress of Klopp’s on the pitch; how he and Firmino were able to pickpocket players in Liverpool’s attacking, final third and create goals out of nothing; how he, Bobby Firmino, and Mohamed Salah formed what is now recognised today as one of the most formidable front threes in the history of the Premier League and Champions League.
Liverpool Football Club on Sadio Mane:
"Sadio Mane has today completed a permanent transfer to Bayern Munich. The Senegalese forward heads to the Bundesliga outfit after six brilliant seasons with Liverpool. He departs Anfield with the best wishes of everyone and the complete set of Premier League, Champions League, FIFA Club World Cup, UEFA Super Cup, Emirates FA Cup and Carabao Cup winner’s medals.

He was far more than just a player and now leaves Anfield as a club legend, having won everything there is to win at the English club. Sadio Mane’s time at Liverpool saw him achieve some great things.
