adminPALMA. – Sadio Mane has gone straight to work ahead of pre-season with Bayern Munich as he worked out shirtless in Palma de Mallorca.
The 30-year-old left Liverpool after six trophy-laden years in a £35million move to the German champions.
Mane admits wanting a “new challenge” was the reasoning behind his decision to leave the Merseyside club.
He said: “Obviously it is strange – really, really strange – to no longer be a Liverpool player.
“But of course I had a great time, an unbelievable time. We won a lot.
“My life is always (about a) challenge and when it came I said to the club that I want to leave, I want to go somewhere else to see a new challenge.
“It is not anything else, it is just a challenge because for me I want to always be challenging myself to get better and better.”
And Mane has got straight to work ahead of pre-season with Bayern Munich as he worked up a sweat shirtless in Pal-ma de Mallorca.
Mane took part in a number of agility drills as well as doing some work on the ball.
Bayern are expected to play two pre-season fixtures in the US in July.
They will take on DC United on July 21.
And then three days later at the Lambeau Field they will face off against Manchester City. – The Sun
