Sadio Mane finally speaks after punching Leroy Sane

Sadio Mane has broken his silence on his scrap with teammate Leroy Sane, which left the German winger with a bloody lip.

The former Liverpool star has also opened up on his future, insisting he is staying at Bayern Munich, following suggestions he could be sold after a below-par first campaign since his arrival from Anfield.

“As I’ve always said, I’ve never liked comfort,” Mane said. “I’ve never liked that. Afterwards, there are incidents. It happens, it’s over. We were able to solve this little problem.

“It’s also good to solve some problems, maybe not in this way, but it’s behind us now, we will try to fight together to be able to help the club achieve its objectives next season.

“I’m on vacation with the family. It was a very complicated season, it happens. It wasn’t a surprise, I expected things to be a bit complicated. It’s normal. 

“I love challenges, and Bayern is a big challenge. It’s up to me to do everything to meet this challenge.’

“God willing. If everything goes well, I’m going to return to Bayern.”
