The new CEO of Bayern Munich, Jan-Christian Dreesen, has reacted to Saudi Arabia’s interest in their player Sadio Mané. The Senegalese striker is rumored to be heading to Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr.
The Sadio Mané saga continues to bring surprises every day. Despite the player’s expressed desire to stay and establish himself in Germany, he is deemed unwanted by Bayern Munich and has been placed on the transfer list. Moreover, the Bavarian giant has set a transfer fee of 32 million euros for him, and coach Thomas Tuchel was quick to show the exit door to the star.
This situation has piqued the interest of Saudi Arabian clubs. Particularly keen, Al Nassr is reportedly in negotiations with Mané’s entourage. A verbal agreement has already been reached between the two parties, and Cristiano Ronaldo’s club has reportedly offered the Senegalese a salary of 25 million euros. However, the new Munich administration may reconsider the situation.
Indeed, Bayern Munich’s new CEO, Jan-Christian Dreesen, has commented on the future of the Senegalese international. Without making too much noise, the German executive pointed out that Sadio Mané is still under contract with Bayern.
“He (Sadio Mané) is part of our team. I don’t want to comment on individual players at the moment. But things can still change before the end of the transfer window,” Dreesen said, as reported by Bayern & Germany media. Will the Bavarian club ultimately keep their player, or is this a way to raise the stakes? These questions will certainly find their answers before the end of the summer transfer window.
