Bayern took two days to take action after Sadio Mané's attack on his teammate Leroy Sané after Tuesday's defeat (3-0) against City in the Champions League. The Bavarian club's pulse has not trembled and has decided to punish the footballer by leaving him out of the squad for the next Bundesliga match against Hoffenheim and imposing a fine, the amount of which has not been disclosed at the moment.
"Sadio Mané, 31, will not be in FC Bayern's squad for the home game against 1899 Hoffenheim next Saturday. The reason is Mané's incorrect behavior after FC Bayern's Champions League game against Manchester City. In addition, Mané will receive a fine", the German club reported in a statement shared through its website.
The Senegalese striker Sadio Mané would have punched his teammate Leroy Sané in the mouth after Bayern's 3-0 defeat against Manchester City after they already had an argument on the field, according to information from the Bild newspaper.
In the 83rd minute, Mané had run asking for a deep pass while Sané wanted to play short with him, which led to a confrontation of words and gestures between the two players. Then in the locker room Mané, who was upset by the way Sané had spoken to him, looked for him and punched him. The other Bayern players intervened and prevented the fight from continuing, according to the newspaper.
