In June 2016, Sadio Mane became the most expensive African player in history at the time when he moved to Liverpool for £34 million from Southampton.
The Senegal international forward had impressed new Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp with 25 goals in 75 games for Saints and quickly became a key player at Anfield, helping the club to win the Champions League (2019), Club World Cup (2019), FA Cup (2022) and Carabao Cup (2022), while also ensuring an end to their 30-year wait for a Premier League title in 2020.
Mane has now opted to move on for a new challenge with Bayern Munich, with the 30-year-old undergoing a medical in Germany on Tuesday ahead of his €41m transfer that will end his six-year spell at Anfield.
