His time at Bayern Munich has not lived up to expectations so far, and the 31-year-old is reportedly set to leave Bavaria for a chance to play in the Saudi Pro League alongside the superstars that have already joined the Saudi Arabian movement.

After only one year with Bayern Munich, where Mane was injured, out of form, suspended, and fined for hitting a teammate, the Senegalese forward’s reputation in Germany has taken a hit, and the forward hit back at one of the journalists who have helped spread the negative stories about him.

Mane was approached by a journalist, who requested an interview in a move that appeared to anger the Senegalese.

The Bayern Munich winger, who was voted the most disappointing player in the 2022/23 season despite the Bavarians winning the league, reacted to the request, saying, "You are killing me every day, and now you wanna talk?” before walking away.

Mane made 38 appearances for Bayern Munich and scored 12 goals in his first campaign in Germany, but could be set for another move after being linked with Saudi Pro League side Al-Nassr.
