Senegalese forward Sadio Mane moved to Bayern Munich on a permanent transfer from Liverpool last summer in a deal worth around £35 million.
The former Liverpool star managed to score 11 goals in 37 appearances and struggled to cement a permanent place in the starting lineup for the Bavarians.
German outlet Bild reports that Mane is on Thomas Tuchel’s seven-player list to leave Bayern this summer as they are looking to sign Harry Kane.
However, the player has broken his silence admitting that he had a complicated season.
“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,” he told Senegalese television station 2sTV.

Mane maintained that he hopes he will still be a Bayern Munich player next season.
“Yes, God Willing. If everything goes well, I’m going to return to Bayern Munich.”
Mane talks Altercation with Sane
Mane also spoke about the altercation he had with teammates Leroy Sane following a defeat to Manchester City in the Champions League last season which saw him receive a one-match ban and a 300,000 euro fine.
“This kind of things can happen. It happened. We were able to solve this small problem. Sometimes it’s good to solve problems, but maybe not in this way. It’s behind us now. We will try to fight together to help the club achieve its goals next season,” he explained.
Meanwhile, Mane’s agent, Bacary Cisse also spoke about his client’s future following reports that clubs in Saudi Arabia are interested to sign him.
Cisse said that he was certain that Mane will stay with Bayern Munich.
