Bayern Munich boss Julian Nagelsmann refuses to rule out signing replacement striker for Robert Lewandowski before the new season begins - with Sadio Mane set to lead the line in Saturday's Supercup final against Leipzig

Bayern Munich manager Julian Nagelsmann has admitted his side may still sign a striker to replace Robert Lewandowski ahead of the new season.

The Polish hotshot, 33, scored an astonishing 50 goals last season in all competitions, with 344 in 375 games in eight seasons at the German side, but joined Barcelona this summer after insisting he wanted to leave.

Bayern have signed Liverpool forward Sadio Mane in a £35million deal and have veteran Eric-Maxim Choupo-Moting as a striking option too, but coach Nagelsmann refused to rule out getting someone else in to shoulder the goalscoring burden.
