Sadio Mané was described by Jürgen Klopp as “one of Liverpool’s greatest-ever players” after his transfer to Bayern Munich was confirmed.
Mané, who has a contract to 2025, told Liverpool’s website: “Obviously it is strange – really, really strange – to no longer be a Liverpool player.
“It’s a big moment – there is no point in anyone trying to pretend otherwise,” Klopp said.
“One of Liverpool’s greatest-ever players is leaving and we must acknowledge how significant this is.”
Mané won a Champions League, Premier League, FA Cup and Carabao Cup during his six seasons at Anfield and Darwin Núñez has been bought from Benfica in a deal worth up to £85m to help replace him.
Bayern won a 10th consecutive Bundesliga title in April but failed for a second consecutive season to get beyond the Champions League quarter-finals.
“A top international star is coming to FC Bayern, who has left his mark on world football,” he said.
Salihamidzic underlined why Bayern moved for Mané.
