Sadio Mane, Joao Cancelo 'to leave Bayern Munich this summer'

Bayern Munich duo Sadio Mane and Joao Cancelo will both leave the German champions at the end of the season, according to a report.

Mane ended a trophy-laden six years at Liverpool last summer to make the move to the Allianz Arena, as the Reds eventually sanctioned a €32m (£27.8m) sale.

The Senegal international penned a three-year deal with the Bundesliga holders, and a few months later, Cancelo followed in Mane's footsteps with a surprise loan switch from Manchester City to Bavaria in January.

Cancelo's temporary deal also includes an option to make his move permanent for a fee of €70m (£60.9m), but that price tag is expected to prove too steep for Thomas Tuchel's team.

According to Sky Deutschland reporter Florian Plettenberg, Bayern have now come to the conclusion that neither Mane nor Cancelo have long-term futures at the club, and both are set to make swift exits this summer.

Mane has registered a respectable 12 goals and six assists from 37 games in his debut season for Bayern, but he has only started 18 Bundesliga contests and was involved in a memorable bust-up with Leroy Sane last month.

Following Bayern's Champions League quarter-final first-leg defeat to Man City at the Etihad Stadium, Mane allegedly punched Sane in the face, and he was subsequently suspended for one game and fined by the German champions.

Prior to that unsavoury incident, Mane was unable to represent Senegal at the World Cup due to a knee injury, and Plettenberg believes that leaving England has changed the attacker for the worse.

"Right now, this is not the Sadio Mane from Liverpool. You can really see the injury from him, right before the World Cup in Qatar, has done something to him," Plettenberg said.

"He has not got the same speed, he's not very good at dribbling or tackling, his body language is very bad - he's not that same happy guy.

"That situation with Sane was a shock for the management, teammates and my information is that he's seen critically inside from now because of his performances and that behaviour.

"A lot of players have distanced themselves from Mane - he's a candidate for sale in the summer, he has a high salary and Thomas Tuchel has no real plans to work with him next season."

A return to the Premier League with Chelsea has been mooted for the 31-year-old, who previously scored 111 goals and set up 47 more in 263 English top-flight games with Southampton and Liverpool.

Meanwhile, Cancelo made the move to Germany after falling down the pecking order under Pep Guardiola, but he denied that there was any rift between him and the Man City head coach.

The 28-year-old has scored one goal and set up six more in 19 games for Bayern and is under contract at Man City for another four seasons, but he was booed by the Etihad faithful when he faced his parent club in the Champions League. body check tags ::
