Sadio Mané Attracts Bundesliga Interest After Standout Season with Salzburg
Senegalese winger Sadio Mané is set to be one of the most sought-after players in the upcoming summer transfer window following a standout season with Red Bull Salzburg.
The 22-year-old, who has been in scintillating form in Austria, is reportedly on the radar of several top European clubs. Bundesliga sides Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Dortmund are among the frontrunners for his signature.
According to German media, Leverkusen—now led by former Salzburg manager Roger Schmidt—have identified Mané as a top target. The club is said to have a transfer budget of €40 million, which could give them a competitive edge in securing the player’s services.
Dortmund, meanwhile, have reportedly tabled a €15 million bid for the Senegal international. Despite being under contract with Salzburg until June 2016, Mané is expected to depart this summer as interest in his dynamic attacking play continues to grow.
A move to Germany’s top flight would mark a significant step in Mané’s career, as he continues to rise through the European football ranks.
