Bayern confirm Mane in transfer talks amid Al-Nassr speculation

Sadio Mane was not in Bayern Munich's squad for pre-season match on Saturday as his departure after just one year at the Bundesliga champions is nearing.

"Sadio Mane is in contract talks ahead of a possible transfer and so is not in today's squad," Bayern tweeted ahead of the game in Tokyo against J-League side Kawasaki Frontale.

Senegal star Mane has been linked with a transfer to Cristiano Ronaldo's Saudi Pro League club Al-Nassr.

His agent was reportedly to arrive in Tokyo on Saturday to finalise details, and French Canal+ said that the medical could take place on Sunday in Dubai, meaning he would leave the Bayern team on the weekend.

The transfer fee has been estimated at around €30 million ($33.2 million).

Mane came to Bayern last year from Liverpool but never fulfilled the high expectations and was also engaged in a dressing room altercation with team-mate Leroy Sane in spring. Bayern bosses have told him that they are planning without him for the upcoming season.
