Following a hugely successful spell at Anfield, the Senegal forward has moved on to join the Bundesliga champions

Sadio Mane has departed Liverpool and joined Bayern Munich in a €41 million (£35m/$43m) move.

The 30-year-old informed the Reds of his desire to leave after their Champions League final defeat against Real Madrid in May, and with Mane having just one year left on his contract, the Reds have allowed him to depart now rather than risk losing him for nothing in the summer of 2023.

Mane’s exit brings to a close an immensely successful spell for the Senegal international in English football, with his time at Liverpool seeing him return 120 goals in 269 appearances.

How much will Mane cost Bayern Munich?

Liverpool will receive a €32m (£27m/$34m) fixed fee for Mane, with a further €6m (£5m/$6m) possible based on appearances, along with another €3m depending on individual and team achievements.

The transfer fee means Liverpool has sold the winger for more than the £33.5m (€39m/$40m) they paid to sign him from Southampton in 2016 – but for Bayern, it marks a key bit of business in the transfer window.
