Sadio Mané is not part of Bayern Munich’s match selection for Saturday afternoon’s league match with TSG Hoffenheim. The Senegalese attacker is suspended for one game and also receives a fine. Mané would have teammate Leroy Sané on Tuesday after the match between Manchester City and Bayern Munich (3-0 loss) according to BILD dealt a blow. According to the German newspaper, Sané’s mouth was bleeding and the two attackers eventually had to be separated by teammates.
Mané was still on the Bayern training field on Thursday afternoon and seemed to have already settled the quarrel with Sane. However, the leader of the Bundesliga then announced in a short statement that the attacker against Hoffenheim is not part of the match selection. Mane’s suspension seems to be limited to one game.
During Bayern’s hopeless match, which lost 3-0, it was already visible that Mané and Sané were at odds. After the game, the argument escalated, after which Mané punched Sané in the dressing room. The Senegalese gave the blow, because he was not happy with the way he was spoken to during the game. The specific moment in the game that angered Mane happened in minute 83. Sane complained to Mane, because the latter went into the depths.
The German, however, wanted Mane to come up to the ball so he could pass it into his feet. Sané would have made this clear to him in an angry tone, after which the situation escalated after the match. Of the two, only Sané started in the starting line-up, while Mané came in at 1-0 in the 69th minute.
