Bayern Munich forward Sadio Mane expressed frustration towards German reporters when he snubbed their interview requests at the club’s training ground.
Mane has faced a challenging time in Munich since joining from Liverpool last summer, leading to strained relations with the German media.
Mane’s struggles in Munich were highlighted when he was recently voted as the Bundesliga’s most disappointing player last season, an award chosen by fellow players.
Additionally, he faced disciplinary action in April after allegedly punching his teammate Leroy Sane in the mouth following their Champions League defeat to Manchester City.

During the incident at the training ground, reporters were waiting to conduct an interview with Mane, but he walked past them, expressing his frustration by saying, “You are killing me every day, and now you want me to talk to you guys?”
Amid the uncertainty surrounding Mane’s future at Bayern, Saudi club Al Nassr have reportedly made a £34 million bid for the talented forward.
Al Nassr are closing in on a move for Sadio Mané. The Saudi club have submitted a request to the Player Acquisition Centre of Excellence at the Ministry of Sport for financing of the deal.
