The Senegal international spent six years at Anfield before joining the German giants. Mane informed about his desire to leave the club after Liverpool's loss against Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League final in May 2022.
Mane had one year left on his contract with the Reds but the club allowed the player to leave as he wanted a change before the season begun. Liverpool posted an update on Mane's departure on their social media handles on Wednesday (June 22) to confirm the forward is leaving their side after being heavily linked to the Bundesliga champions.
