When he join Liverpool he was a RW, then Salah joined , he went LW , now Diaz is here his playing striker . Every time he moved position he bossed it . He knows it’s time to move

Mane is not greedy at all. His contract has stayed stagnant for 3 to 4 years, whilst everyone else’s contract was getting upgraded. Mind you the whole time Mane has stayed positive and given the club his all, and that’s with a cast of Salah’s shadow over him. Mane has been a staple of Liverpools success and it’s such a shame that Liverpool don’t see how good they have it right now. I hope mane finds a new home where he will be appreciated, even if it means less success or taking a pay cut.

Sadio Mane is on 100,000 pounds sterling per week. He is one of the lowest paid among the starters. Liverpool have brought in his replacements. It's smart of him to be seeking a move now.

People are too quick to see this from the club's perspective. Shaka got it spot on, if Liverpool are willing to let his contract run down to its final year, they were never too serious about doing everything to keep him. Sadio obviously felt that and called their bluff. England isn't a some football utopia, Spain and Germany are just as good a place to ply their trade.

Lies, Craig, He is not being paid enough, He is not appreciated enough, Never injured, never complaining, Regardless of what happens, THANK YOU SO MUCH SUPER SADIO MANE, YNWA

Mane deserved more credit !!!! That's all i can say

To be honest, I don't think Sadio has been totally happy at Liverpool for a while now going back to the famous substitution 'tantrum'. He feels underappreciated. It will be a challenge to replace the offensive threat and pressing menace that Sadio has given us over the years. Best of luck to him

Mane is on about 100-120k a week. His been a world class performer for 6 years. LFC have taken advantage frankly, and no way does he get credit from fans or pundits. Our best attacker we would be taking one step back selling Mane.

You can't blame him, Liverpool aren't showing him any love whilst Salah is getting a lot of it

Would be a big mistake to let Mane go. Liverpool will find out how much they need him when he's gone.

Bayer Munich are willing to pay higher wages, while liverpool focused to less salary, you can't compete by paying less salary than Newcastle

He has the right to go wherever he wants right now. He has earned it. Deserved to be leaving with a much higher salary as well but some people don’t want to talk about that. Imagine that, at the level Mane played, £100K a week? Still? Yea right…. Go for it bro, you’ve done your bit.

A player that will fit great to Bayern München. His abilities and stats are phenomenal...

Did Shaka and Craig listened what Mark said? Liverpool don't value Mane as much as others. He makes half of many players. His contract should've been renewed with a better salary 2 or 3 year ago.

If Mane was not allowed to celebrate the nation's cup victory because of Salah then I think he should leave. That's absolutely crazy preventing him his glory because of a team mate. All Senegalese players were given a hero's welcome at their clubs except him.

Mane is in the same position as Lewandowski at Bayern, he has one year left on his contract, seen Liverpool bring in two players that play his position, he is seeing the club offer new contracts to his teammates while not to him and he is already underpaid at Liverpool. Why wouldn't you consider moving to one of the other major sides in Europe?

That’s a smart move by him, he gets paid peanuts compared to others despite his qualities and commitment. He may not get a renewal of more than a year which is the common practice now, so moving on and signing a 3-4 yr contract makes sense. Kudos to him

Mane hasn't been getting the same money as the other top players at Liverpool and he will double his wages at bayern. If its what he wants I wish him good luck he's been a great player for Liverpool

I don't think this is shocking at all. Most players even if they perform at a high level only stay at a club for 5 maybe 6 years if they're lucky. Mane is also 30 years old and this will be his last chance at a new challenge. Then add to the fact that I never felt Mane was completely comfortable playing a secondary role to Salah in the clubs hierarchy. Remember the on field spat about Salah's selfishness? Mane has been practically on par with Salah the last 5 years and in some seasons even better but the public perception from the club and media does not reflect that.

Maybe, it's no longer about the challenge for Sadio. He challenged himself enough in the PL for the last 10 years, achieving great things with Liverpool, pleyed 3 CL finals. Maybe, it's time for him to take it easy a little bit. Bayern Munich is still a fantastic club, let's not forget that. The Bundesliga is still competitive enough, despite the 10 consevutive league titles for Bayern. Man City are heading that way in the PL too, aren't they? Mane is not the 23 years old Mbappe, or the 21 years old Haaland to challenge themselves in the PL. He is 30. Let him go and start a new chapter in his fantastic career. I think it will be a great move for both, Mane and Bayern Munich sides.

I think Mané will be a bigger miss for Liverpool, I know Salah has scored more goals, but with Mané you get so much more.

Mane is one of the lowest paid players in the Liverpool 1st team. Why WOULDN'T he leave?!?

Mane is the best attacker of Liverpool.... Salah has the ego and get's all the media attention. But watch Liverpool dip if he leaves. He was Klopps first major signing and helped us go from 7-8th place to 4th in his first season with the help of Coutinho. Unsung Hero

It’s simple: They don’t pay him enough. He deserves more!

Sadio hasn’t been happy at Liverpool especially after the Afcon. He never felt he was respected enough by the club and I feel that too. The fans love him but I don’t think it’s the same with the club and so it’s understandable. This guy this season has been as important as salah never mind the number of goals salah has score. Mane has stepped up big games countless times for Liverpool.

He is not concerned with all the focus on Mo Salah. How can you say something so ridiculous. The man just wants a new challenge. Its a perfectly good reason to want to leave.

Britts can’t fathom a player considering any league other than the EPL as if the top 3 EPL teams hadn’t just been dumped from the UCL by a team they’ve been 💩 on for the past 3 years lmaoooo

What a joke from Burley. Wanting to join Bayern is a perfectly natural choice for any player. This clown thinks football only matters in England with its oligarch owned clubs.

Needless to say, all soccer players dream of the European 3 GIANTS Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Manchester United.

This guy always steps up in the big games for Liverpool. I always knew he is going to be one of the best when he was playing for Southampton. He scored the quickest hattrick for them. He will be missed by Liverpool. He will be the star of whichever team he joins next.

I’m proud of you Mane🤴🏽 move on they don’t deserve to having you 💯 We love you and we’ll going to support you for life no matter what💯👑💫💞

They don't consider him an important player. That's the real reason

After his magnificent efforts, Sadio really has not been shown enough appreciation by Liverpool FC. Underpaid by the club and disrespected by far too many fans earlier this season.

Didn't Frankfurt win the Europa league....not sure what Craig is talking about.

I mean hey he's won everything with the club basically he's 30 not getting any younger Liverpool is crazy winger heavy he served the club well let the man go in peace

I really dont buy this "all the focus is on Mo Salah" narrative. The guy is a professional footballer not some online dweed tweeting his feelings on twitter. Liverpool signed Diaz and Jota, both play in his position. Mane knows he's slowly being phased out, he's already won everything with liverpool. If there's anytime to move to a big club, it is now.

Big loss for liverpool. Salah may be the more talented player (arguably) but Mane has been the real driving force of this Liverpool since Klopp joined. When Salah goes cold (and he often does) Mane is still there. Put him in any position up front and he delivers. If I were Liverpool I would have preferred to lose Salah.

I don't think there's much overthinking needed, maybe he just wants a change in scenery, try a different league and live in a new country. He's had a fine time at Liverpool and it's a good time for him to move to another big European club.

Don’t really understand why Craig is surprised.. he wants a new challenge a change of scenery… Sadio Mane is underpaid, under appreciated… Not long ago people were saying Sadio had lost it…. .. It’s a pity the league will lose him… Loved watching him play.

I'm devastated. My favourite player. We'll miss him at Liverpool. Most will not realize how vital Mane was to success at Liverpool , maybe until after he's gone. I'm not blind. He's had slumps in form. Especially putting the ball away over the last 3 seasons. Having said that Salah has been struggling even more since returning from Afcon yet he demands club record wages despite already being on nearly double what Mane gets. Salah loses possession too easily and too often and doesn't fight for the ball anywhere near Mane. Mane puts his body on the line consistently and has always done more work to get possession back. He's better in the air by miles. Obviously his work rate has dropped over the last 2 seasons but that's from levels that were unmatched anywhere. I completely understand how he feels as l have watched closely since his arrival from Southampton. I haven't forgotten the times Mane was unmarked in the 6 yard box and Salah refused to pass to him for what would have been tap ins even though Salah had the keeper and or defender to beat. Mane put the team 1st until now. I've seen the frustration and it's totally warranted.

Craig please understand epl is not the only league in europe. Bayern is always a bigger club than liverpool.

Mane is the core and heartbeat of that liverpool forward. He makes them tick. They will miss him dearly

These pundits always make me laugh when they talk about how big of a chance a team has to win the CL. I can't remember a time that they have been on point, this season they were dismissing Real Madrid from start to the final. They did the same thing with Chelsea last season, and Bayern wasn't even in their conversations during the 19/20 season till they reached the final. Watch Bayern win the CL next season with Mane after this lmao

Mané is my absolute favorite and for thr last 3 years I've said how underappreciated he is. All the news is always on Mo. Bad games Mané is subbed off but not Salah. And the last bit of disrespect is the money. Mané is not greedy but Milner and Kieta are paid more than Mané. Hate to see him go. I prioritize him more than Salah at this point but I understand he's desire to leave us

Not only did he deserve more financially, but despite all his respect to Salah involving the AFCON, Mo just seems like a selfish FWD to play with. Many times Salah had opportunities to assist/sneak Mane in throughout the season, instead he shot for himself. Don’t blame Mane one bit all the best to him where he ends up.

"Paid handomely" Mane make 100k per week less than Lingard...about half of what Martial makes

Sadio mane is legend and he need the club who appreciate his effort and him in general . I guess he felt he is under the shadow of mo salah.and it's clearly true . So I wish him the best .he wants to be start .he can approve it .

He’s getting paid under 120k a week no wonder he’s looking to go

Something to do with the fact that they under pay him. His on 100k a week, which is a joke. I think he knows Liverpool won't pay him what he deserves and will prioritise Salah. Not to mention Diaz is now favored on the left not Mane anymore. Imo, he may not get the same number of goals as Salah but his the most dangerous man on the field. Deserves a bigger pay day.

After watching luis diaz HE CAN’T REPLACE MANÉ!!! Huge lost for liv. will see next year

Mane feels disrespected in this team, arguably the most impactful player for them in the last 2 seasons and they keep changing his position on the field with newcomers. Salah, Jota and Diaz - he has been the one to make way for them over his preferred position.

Mane has 5 years left in him I reckon. Amazing player.

Bayern would be a "different' challenge, a new experience. English players rarely ever leave England, they are not very well travelled. So it may be hard for some to understand. You can count on one hand, the number of high profile English players to shine outside of England. At the end of his career the guy can say he has conquered 2 of the top 5 leagues, not every Senegalese can say that. Even better if he wins the CL with them. Craig 'can't see Bayern challenging for the CL'? Bet he couldn't 'see' Real winning either 😂

It is absolutely funny that these guys really think PL has a title race :D

As a Chelsea fan seeing Mane at the bridge would be a amazing. Don't see it happening right now but this summer he will be a big target for signing. Chelsea are on the hunt with TB & Friends buying the club and Tuchel running the team. Chelsea is hungry and she's got ban$ to buy a good course meal of the finest quality.

The way these pundits down play other leagues compare to the EPL is absolutely disrespectful. He wants a new challenge it is that simple.

I hope he stays. Similar to the Gerrard situation with Chelsea all those years ago. Perhaps not as big but certainly significant enough to affect the teams mindset. He is just as important as Salah for me.

“As a player being paid handsomely“. Burley is clueless. Mane is not paid his worth. Pay him the money, Liverpool are exploiters. They have been linked with an swap for Gnabry but they won’t pay him either.

Maybe Sadio learn from what happen to Gini, him and his agent does not want to see that happen to Mane. LFC Management should be very careful because these kind of things might stain the reputation of the club on how they treat their players at end. Even Legends like Steve G, saw the same fate. Most people didn't know that Steve G still wanted to stay at LFC during Klopp's first season, but the Club could not negotiate with him financially so Steve went to LA Galaxy in the USA. Saido is one of the most used, productive and most hard working player Liverpool LFC have seen for years. Liverpool fans don't even know the GAP and void a player like Mane would live at Liverpool and it's going to take another extraordinary player to fill that gap or void. A player that comes back and helps the defense, and joins the front 3 and scores goals? Give me any number 10 throughout the EPL that does that for their team. Just the amount of games Sadio played in a season alone is so impeccable, hardly get injured, the man is just durable for both CLUB & COUNTRY. SADIO, I LOVE AND APPRECIATE YOU FOR ALL THE PAST SIX YEARS YOU PLAYED FOR LIVERPOOL. YOU ARE ONE OF THE GREATEST THAT EVER COME FORM AFRICA. I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST THAT YOU WISH YOURSELF AND FAMILY. I THANK YOU! I LOVE! (YOU ARE LIVERPOOL, AND A LEGEND FOREVER AND ALWAYS!)

Sadio Mane needs a club where he is more respected I’m hoping that he joins Bayern Munich.

Craig's missing the point between opportunity and challenge - sometimes you just want a fresh chance, it doesn't have to be extremely difficult

Mane doesn't seem to get enough credit tbf, speaking as an everton fan.

Who wouldn't wanna join bayern munich ?? Everybody knows the big 3 always been madrid, bayern, and barca.

A revamp is needed, although reaching 3 finals albeit winning 2, no goals were scored by the strike force …. A diffferent force is needed???

Sadio can only chase the money at this point of his career. He’s won every possible trophy at club level

Absolutely hilarious how burley is completely inept to accept mane wants out. I can watch this again and again.

Hislop almost nails it at the end. Mane and Salah have gotten to within one year of the end of their contracts. It indicates that Liverpool are unwilling or unable to come up with contract extensions or new contracts acceptable to either. Jotta and Diaz were bought as replacements and not just to strengthen the squad. Money talks and Mane and Salah are nearer the end of their careers than the beginning. Hardly surprising they are looking for the best possible deal and may have to move to get it.

As a Man City fan, I'm happy to see Mane leave. I've always loved watching him play though, so it's a bittersweet moment.

both salah and mane has served their time at lfc well, so I wouldn't be sad if they left. They're gonna have to leave any time soon anyway because of the age.

Mane is not paid enough considering his skill, he is on 100 k per week!! I heard Liverpool werent willing give him 200 k

1:46 this guy is so clueless, isnt it Bayern munich that has been destroying english clubs for years ? Calling Bayern not a challenge 🤦‍♂️

about bayern being dominant is because they sign the quality players to be dominant Lewe wants to go whos the next to continue their dominance him

He wants out of Salah’s shadow. A shadow, by the way, cast mostly by the club.

Great decision !! Liverpool and Klopp have been disrespectful to Mane for a long time. Salah is their favorite so they can keep him.

of course its a bigger challenge to play in the prem atm but he played there for 6 years now and won it so its ok for him to leave now and go to a club in which he can also compete for the cl and where he can add a few more trophies by winning the league !

I've made this claim back 3 or 4 months ago but I speculate (complete speculation) that Salah wants the No.10 Jersey and this is an issue with Sadio always feeling he is just an after thought. I guess we will know if I am right IF Sadio leaves and Salah Stays and is wearing the 10 jersey.

Experts, what makes PL the best league in the world? Cause i dont get it. Its no competition, its 2 teams.. PL team didnt win either UCL, EL or Conf league (top 3 european competitions). This is not me criticizing, i just wanna know what makes PL the best league 🤷🏼‍♂️

He's a top talent He can fit anywhere But still Klopp will face it worse like in Gini's case

These fools don’t understand what it is to play for Bayern…and to succeed there. Bayern are called FC Hollywood for a reason, it’s a dream not only for every german player but also to others like french, dutch and some other far away countries. It’s not only abt the league but about the stats and legacy and especially the CL which Bayern considers a must every season (to compete for it).

To Craig‘s points … He played in Austria which is close to Munich. Nagelsmann worked RB like he did. PL is not only a challenge, it s a grind. Klopp is intense too and they play at the highest level for some time now. He won everything with Liverpool. If you can get good money at another legendary club and be the superstar in the Bundesliga, that s not too bad. Bayern compete for the CL and have a real good team in the making. 34 games plus winter break help to extend your career. Adding a couple of german trophies and another CL titel would result in a fantastic career. Liverpool is a superb club and a great team. Also a very good option. No doubt.

Mané knows that Liverpool will not give him a big contract that will make him feel the appreciation he deserves, so he has decided to bounce. The emphasis has been on too much on Salah who does not offer anything extra apart from goals. I think the time for players has come to and end and Liverpool should cash in now.

Liverpool in the mud 😂😂😂 Craig looks like he’s about to cry 🥴😂😂

The background track to Mane's stats is maaaaad fire 🔥

Hard worker..Mane works his socks off every match he is in & will be a huge asset to any club that picks him up..

Mane should go to PSG. Have a 4 years contract,bbecome rich and retired at 34

Good luck Sadio Mane, you have been Mr. consistent all throughout your Liverpool career. Liverpool new 3 is still formidable asf with Diaz, Jota & Salah.

People come and go. Let him go with a standing ovation 👏

These British people are trying to convince us that EPL is the only league in the world. The truth is English teams have won only 2 of the last 10 champions league. Bayern has won the same amount.

Sadio has been an absolute warrior for Liverpool. Disappointed if he wants to leave but will wish him all the best if he does decide to leave. Also if he doesn’t feel loved then I can assure you he is loved very much.

Mane has been a success under Klopp. It’s time to move on while still at his best. He will be a big player for his next club. For Liverpool, no player is indispensable. Club need to dig deep to replace Mane in term of money and scouting system.

Mane has won everything with liverpool. Now he is 30 and may be his last chance to take on a different challenge. That alone can be enough for some players. I wish mane all the best. Has served the club well and I think he will be fondly remembered by all the fans

"Best league in the world, at the moment" I think LaLiga disagrees with Craig's statement

If they lose Mane there's no way they'll manage competing against city next season

Liverpool can't challenge for title anymore without Mane 🥲

Very versatile player , it will be a big boost for Byern

not a liverpool follower but i do enjoy watching them play, and Mane is one of the most fun people to watch in the world. his movement on and off the ball is so unpredictable and wily, and unmatched. if he is being paid under others at his level then it is understandable. they will not be able replace him.

If he was appreciated, he won't be earning just 100k as against 140, 200 etc in the case of Alex Arnold, Henderson, Mane even Milner earns more than he does.

Good!! I don’t want him to score against Arsenal!! Years ago I saw him playing for Southampton scoring and I knew he was a special player .

All the best to Sadio Mane. I thought i read somewhere he wanted similar pay to Van Dijk, Alison, that show appreciation to him, which Liverpool didnt want to. Similar story to Wijnaldum. Not sure is that something to concern about?

Anyone seen the movie Salah´s revenge? Its really good, but may i warn you, there is a bitter sweet ending
