So basically everything might look certain after Bayern Munich got Harry Kane. Because if he comes to Bayern Munich, it is possible that there will be more Bayern Munich strikers and there is an option to sell if they judge that the player has failed to make a big contribution to the team. Al Ahli is the front team that can get Sadio Mane, but it depends on Mane whether he is ready to leave the European stage or still wants to stay in Europe next season.

For now Bayern Munich probably won't think about Mane or the offers that have come their way regarding Sadio Mane. Bayern Munich have been more preoccupied with the Harry Kane transfer saga as Bayern Munich have made a second bid increasing their bid to €80 million plus add-ons.

To end this speculation, here's what Mane's manager said: Sadio Mane’s manager denies rumored move to Saudi Arabia

It has been said that Chelsea wasn't on their options either but Mane's transfer is already rumored because Bayern might not able to allocate all the forwards in the team because they are on the hunt and the thing is, Mane's camp aren't even denying that. So, it did seems that it will all happen this summer. Meanwhile, Manchester United remains steadfast and shows their interest to acquire Mane.

Mane 31 years including old players it is the average age of players who go to the Saudi League I mean European players, other indications can be seen from the market value that continues to decline compared to last season decreased from €60m and now €25m imagine if Munich holds Mane until next season is expected go down to 15m-20m so actually if the offer from the Saudi League is true then it is the right moment to release it before he goes as a free transfer because the contract will expire in 2025.

I remember what made us sure that Sadio Mane would move to Saudi Pro League was when Transfermarkt published rumors + includes local media, 3 clubs from this league are interested in bringing it but we forgot that it was rumors, until finally Sadio Mane's agent confirmed there was no offer   

It's true they made great strides with their money, recruiting elite players from Europe as well as Coaches being the fact that Saudi Arabia is trying to build its own domestic league. Rather than buying a club from Elite, investing in domestic football (Domestic League) will add a lot of profit to them. TV rights, Sponsors, Jersey sales and various other benefits will make them a bigger profit. I think all of this will improve the image of Saudi Arabian football and especially the Saudi Pro League to a better level.

It looks like Saudi Arabia has ambitions to run for the hosting of the upcoming 2030 World Cup, so they start from improving the quality of football by improving their Domestic League. And sure enough as you said watching them spend money seems like it's part of the hobby. It looks like in the future we will start to get many choices to enjoy football along with the development of the Saudi Pro League which is increasingly competitive.

Yes, Mane still have talent and also he is still healthy and fit, he should still be able to play in the europa zone. Although previously at Bayern Munich he didn't play very well after being injured, but there is still a possibility for Mane to play better again. Also I read some news, reportedly there no official offer from a club in the Saudi league for Mane. But if there is an offer from the Saudi League with a high salary, I think it is possible Mane will think about it.

The point is, they don't see this more like a hobby. I'm pretty sure, it's not without reason if they dare to pour out fantastic funds. after all, what they do is not just to spend money. however, there is a mission behind what the PIF and the Saudi kingdom are doing. the Saudi kingdom sees, if the entrance for their various projects through football. with football, all eyes of the world will be on Saudi. that's why, they are willing to spend a lot of money to bring in top European players. in addition to bringing the development of Saudi football much further, they also opened the door for other countries to invest in Saudi. which means, Saudi has been open to do business with countries around the world. that is why, 4 pro saudi league clubs were acquired by prince Mohammed bin Salman.

Don't we see that what the Saudis are doing is the right step. don't be surprised, if Saudi will become a destination country, just like Abu Dhabi. their current focus is to host the 2030 world cup, after which this country will be increasingly visited by many tourists. they don't just rely on religious tourism for certain religions, and don't always rely on oil. but they plan to expand into other industries that will bring in a lot of money. But, this is just my personal opinion. So, our focus is on football, at least in the next 5-10 years, Saudi football will be much more advanced than other Asian countries.

Hm, I haven't heard any rumours that Mane might move to Saudi Arabia, it hasn't even been suggested, on the contrary, there are now suspicions that he will move to Chelsea. The English were in talks with Bayern in May about it, but since then nothing more is known, so maybe he will stay in Germany at all. Even if one considers the move to Saudi Arabia in theory it is strange, he is playing at a high level and could certainly do so for a few more years

It's understandable for players to leave for Saudi league if they are offered a lot of money they won't be getting in other leagues. That's the only thing Saudis can do at this moment, the power of money in todays football means something and instead of buying a European club to build into something larger, they are making their own league bigger which is a smarter decision if you ask me but it's a costly one.

They are going to spend a billion dollars per year on these teams which is going to be a lot but when you consider Saudi family probably has close to half a trillion dollars, you realize that spend a billion dollars per year on this league doesn't really even crack their top ten investments and they see this more like a hobby. So they can spend a few more 100 million per year contracts and still would not even feel it.

Perhaps Mane's case makes clubs hesitant to have him. But when at Liverpool he wasn't like that, maybe there were other reasons that made Mane fight with Sane and the coaching staff. In addition, the price is quite expensive may make big teams also make offers. Indeed, with his current age, Mane is still too early to move to the Saudi Arabian league. He is still very capable of competing in Europe. But if there really is no other option, maybe the Saudi Arabian league is the last resort.

If that was the case, if harmony and comfortability is one of the main issues players, I ask you do you really think that Ronaldo would have ever gone to Saudi Arabia if they offered him only $50 million per year?

I understand what you mean but these guys are 99% about the money. I know that Lewandowski and Modric said no so far and that Lewandwoski also received a monster offer. But apart from those two players I am not aware of players who rejected an offer that would have made them hundreds of millions and Ronaldo doesn't give a damn about the harmony in the team.

Happy and given a big salary are two things that every player needs at the club he defends. I think the two things have to be balanced. Player performance on the field really depends on it. For players of Sadio Mane's level, it seems that they will continue to put forward that means comfort in a team and finances are a priority. It is reported that Mane is indeed not in harmony with his team-mates in Munich Lorey Sane, maybe this is the reason his name is often associated with changing clubs in this transfer market.

However according to several sources, Saido Mane's agent has confirmed that his player never received a formal offer from any of the Saudi Pro League clubs. it was a surprise when the rich Saudi Pro League club was able to bring in a player like Cristiano Ronaldo let alone Sadio Mane. if there is an official offer, it seems that Mane will also be touched to move.

Sadio Mane can still have a career advancement in European football. But specifically I haven't seen a good career for Mane at Bayern. Mane really struggled to adapt at Bayern. His first season at Bayern was beyond my expectations and that of the Bayern fans. So it's only natural that at this time rumors about Sadio Mane, who will be brought in by an SPL club, are increasingly becoming a topic of conversation. But Sadio Mane's managerial side seems to have confirmed that all of this is just a rumor and there have been no genuine offers from Arab clubs about this.

But if it turns out that Al-Ahli is really going to make an offer to sign Sadio Mane. then maybe this will make Bayern a little worried that one of his players will leave. because after all Bayern actually have a long way to go with Mane. The first season didn't look too good but in the following season Mane could have adapted to Bayern. It's just that the many problems that surrounded Mane at the Bayern club also reinforced speculation about Mane who could indeed leave there.

It is surprising to see that Modric is not interested in the big money on offer, and Lukaku is also one of the players who has stated that he does not want to play in the Saudi Pro League and his current condition is uncertain.
Roberto Firmino going to the Saudi Pro league is quite surprising because previously when it was rumored that he would no longer renew his contract at Liverpool he would go to Laliga, and at 31 years of age it is still possible for him to compete in Europe and with his decision to go to the Arab league then the chances of him being able to return to being a player the Brazilian national team seems to be closed because when he was still at Liverpool he was unable to compete with the young ones, especially now he plays for a league where the competition is not as tight as in Europe

No way that the financial conditions leave him untouched. Almost nobody could claim that the money these clubs are offering for the players to go to Saudi Arabia does not matter and I am sure  Mane is no different. Keep in mind that Mane is known for sharing his fortune with poor people from his home country as far as I know. Wouldn't that be a good reason for him to sign a contract with an income of possibly hundreds of millions in a few years? He could even think that way that it makes sense for him for other reasons than making himself even richer.

In as much that most professional footballers does engage in the sports in order to earn a living instead of literally playing football for of the love of the beautiful game,  there are things many footballers wouldn't do just because of what they stand to gain financially.
To Sadio Mane, he's not considering leaving European Football now because he thinks he still has more few years to play top football in Europe. The massive financial packages that comes with the biddings of Saudi Arabian clubs isn't even gonna make him change

The power of money to attract people still impress although players like Modric refused to move to Saudi Arabia league even though he is playing his latest seasons before retirement and could collect much money from playing there rather than renewing his contract a year each time.
For Firmino he preferred the money over his professional career and achievements since in Saudi Arabia he will not participate in European competitions mainly Champions League nor compete in high level leagues like EPL or La Liga. Anyway it is up to him to decide and Saudi league become more and more interesting with the players coming there.

Kane is a player for a different position that Mane. Bayern Munich tried to let Mane play in the center, but it didn't work out and before they go into the next season without a real striker like Kane, Bayern Munich will do everything to sign a different player instead of trying it again with Mane. Mane is also a top earner at Bayern Munich and that is the bigger problem for them. If he now gets an offer from a Saudi club, Bayern Munich will be happy because otherwise he would just choose to stay and sit out the contract with that salary. That would be the worst case for Bayern Munich as they could need the money to bait exceptional strikers.

We can't make sure about the situation of Sadio Mane in the next season because nothing is clear yet, but we know due to something that happened in Bayern Munich with Mane and Sane he can't have enough focus for his teams and there is even the chance for him to leave.
Also if Kane joins Bayern Muniuh in the next season, they won't need to keep this player. That's why there is a high chance for him to go to the Saudi teams.

If you think it's too early for Sadio Mane to join a Saudi league team then how do you explain the situation of his former Liverpool colleague Roberto Firmino joining Al-Ahli first? I think age has not been a problem so far because players who are much younger than Sadio Mane are also attracted by the salary offered.

Talking about the talent of a player, it will always be there for European competition, but sometimes they are also tired if their talent is not considered so important by some European clubs and it is only natural that in the end they decide to go to the Saudi league which obviously doesn't really make a big deal about it. If we assume of course the salary of 100 million euros per year is the same as a decade of their work to defend the European team and I think I quite agree with what you say.

Al Ahli FC made such a good and tempting offer for Roberto Firmino that he is absolutely convinced of a move despite having been with Liverpool since 2015.
Roberto Firmino is a pretty good attacking player and his joining the Arab club has been very well received by fans of Al Ahli FC.
After all, the salary he received from Al Ahli FC was much bigger, which was almost 2 times the salary he received when he was with Liverpool.

Club Club will be the greatest this transfer season as they manage to sign top players for exorbitant fees.
