(Football news) Sadio Mane will make more than £34 million (€40 million) per year tax-free while playing for Al Nassr, with a weekly income of more than £650,000; the 31-year-old is due to have a physical in Dubai on Monday and will play alongside Cristiano Ronaldo in the Saudi Pro League. The former Liverpool winger will earn more than £34 million (€40 million) a year tax-free while playing for the Saudi Arabian club, with a weekly wage of more than £650,000.
Mane is likely to sign a contract extension until 2027, which means he would earn about £136 million if he completes the deal.The 31-year-old is scheduled to have a physical in Dubai on Monday and will play in the Saudi Pro League alongside Cristiano Ronaldo.
Mane just joined Bayern last summer on a three-year agreement after leaving Liverpool for £35 million, but he fell out of favour after hitting teammate Leroy Sane after a Champions League loss to Manchester City in April.
Mane was dismissed from the squad and punished as Bayern won their 11th Bundesliga title in a row. In 38 appearances, the winger scored 12 goals. He went on Bayern’s pre-season tour of Asia, but he was not included in Saturday’s friendly against Kawasaki Frontale in Tokyo.
“Sadio Mane is in contract talks ahead of a possible transfer and so is not in today’s squad,” said Bayern.
After joining Liverpool from Southampton in 2016, Mane made 269 appearances and scored 120 goals in all competitions. Bayern Munich spent an initial £27.5 million for the Senegal forward, with an additional £7.5 million in add-ons. He won the Premier League, Champions League, FIFA Club World Cup, UEFA Super Cup, FA Cup, and Carabao Cup during his six years at Anfield.
