Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich announced on Wednesday they have signed Senegal forward Sadio Mane from Liverpool on a three-year contract.
The 30-year-old Mane arrived in Munich on Tuesday for the mandatory medical and then put pen to paper on the high-profile deal until 2025.
The transfer fee has been estimated at 32 million euros (33.7 million dollars) which can rise to 41 million euros with add-ons.
The Senegal captain joined Liverpool in 2016 from Southampton and won all titles on offer with Jürgen Klopp’s Reds, scoring 120 goals in 269 games for them.
“Sadio Mané is a global star, who underlines the appeal of FC Bayern and will increase the attractiveness of the Bundesliga as a whole.
“Fans come to the stadiums to see such players,” Bayern Munich president Herbert Hainer said.
Mane said: “I’m really happy to finally be at FC Bayern in Munich. We spoke a lot and I felt big interest from this great club right from the beginning.
“So, for me, there were no doubts. It’s the right time for this challenge. I want to achieve a lot with this club, in Europe too.”
