Is Mohamed Salah a direct reason for the expected departure of Sadio Mane?
The most prominent topic in the past few days has become the expected departure of the most prominent star of the Liverpool team, Sadio Mane, as he was strongly linked to the move to Bayern Munich, to be an alternative to the Polish Lewandowski, who strongly wanted to play for Barcelona starting next summer.
Many reports in the English media in the previous period linked Mane's departure to the extent to which his most prominent partner in the Liverpool attack benefited, the English Premier League's top scorer, Mohamed Salah, and was it one of the main reasons behind Mane's decision to leave.
Mane’s contract has one season left, as it ends in June 2023, and several English newspapers, including “Mirror” and “The Sun,” reported that Mane wants to leave because he does not feel the appreciation that he deserves morally and materially, and that the presence of Salah does not help him, and a previous report He pointed out that Mane is not highly appreciated by his colleagues who focus more on Salah in praising the Liverpool attack, although Mane's contributions are very great, throughout the years that he remained one of the most prominent stars in the team.
The most prominent surprise was when the value of Mane's annual salary was revealed, which does not exceed 6.5 million euros, and he is ranked 11th in the salary rankings for Liverpool players, and in the fourth row in the ranking of players' salaries in the English Premier League.
Indeed, the Guinean Naby Keita, who plays a substitute, is superior to him (7.5 million euros), while Liverpool stars Salah and Van Dyck are almost twice as good as him.
On the other hand, "The Sun" reported that Mane received a tempting offer from Bayern Munich amounting to about 15 million euros per year, and the club is ready to pay more than 30 million euros to ensure his transfer from Liverpool, especially since his contract has only one season left.
In the past six years, Mane scored 126 goals and assists for Liverpool.
He was one of the prominent names with Salah in Liverpool achieving the Premier League title after waiting 30 years, as well as the European Champions League in 2019.
Salah, for his part, came out to the media with a clear statement, decisive that he will remain in Liverpool next season, without any talk about renewing his contract, and he may only want to terminate his contract, which ends in the summer of 2023, while Mane hinted before the last European Champions Final, which he lost against Real Madrid 1-0, that he will announce an important news after the match.
Many reports indicated the news of his departure, which may be officially confirmed within days, with Bayern and Liverpool entering undisclosed negotiations.
