Sadio Mane replies in three words to answer when asked if he will join Newcastle after leaving Liverpool

Sadio Mane left Liverpool last summer to join Bayern Munich. But the move didn’t work out and he is now being recommended for a return to the Premier League.

A year after leaving Liverpool to join Bayern Munich, Sadio Mane is linked with a return to the Premier League.

After a promising start to his career at Bayern, Mane suffered an injury in November which sidelined him for more than three months and caused him to miss the World Cup with Senegal.

And it got worse from there. Upon his return to action, he scored just once in his last 15 appearances of the season and was suspended and fined after reporting he had beaten teammate Leroy Sane.

The row came after Bayern’s 3-0 Champions League loss to Manchester City and added further misery to a disappointing first season.

Mane, who is expected to replace Robert Lewandowski, has scored just seven Bundesliga goals since joining the Allianz Arena.

It was considered a disaster for Bayern to win the league title until the last day of the season.

And that’s why they are planning a summer change. As well as Mane, Serge Gnabry is also linked with a potential move.

A report from German magazine Bild earlier this month linked Mane with a dream return to Anfield.

The suggestion was that Bayern would consider a cheaper transfer fee for the 31-year-old despite paying £35million for his services a year ago.

Although the forward’s signing may resonate with some Reds fans, Jurgen Klopp is unlikely to think the same. The German has already replaced his former star with the signings of Darwin Nunez and Cody Gakpo.

Mane, who finished second to Karim Benzema in the 2022 Ballon d’Or rankings, has also been linked with the Reds’ Premier League rivals Newcastle United and Chelsea.

It has also been reported that he has the option of joining Benzema in Saudi Arabia.
