Sadio Mane looks set for a move away from Bayern Munich after just one season in Germany.

Mane, 31, signed from Liverpool in a £35million deal last summer but has struggled to make an impact in the Bundesliga, scoring seven goals and producing five assists.

Bayern won their 11th consecutive title in dramatic style but manager Thomas Tuchel is still keen to revamp his squad after a relatively underwhelming season.

Mane could be one of those he looks to sell — with a move to the Saudi Pro League appearing most likely.
