Rickie Lambert has said on talkSPORT (9:12am, June 13, 2022) that he is surprised that Sadio Mane wants to leave Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool for Bayern Munich.
Bayern are interested in signing Mane from Liverpool in the summer transfer window, according to The Times.

The report has claimed that Bayern have had two bids for the Senegal international forward already rejected by Liverpool.
The Bundesliga club will now make a third bid for the 30-year-old £100,000-a-week (Spotrac) star, according to the report.
Mane himself is reportedly open to moving to German champions Bayern in the summer transfer window.
Former Liverpool striker Lambert is surprised that Mane wants to leave the Reds.

Lambert said on talkSPORT (9:12am, June 13, 2022): “Yes, it is surprising. I am surprised.
“He is in the peak of his powers. Liverpool are at the peak of their powers, challenging for everything, so you would think that a player would want to stay. Everyone is different.”
In our view, leaving Liverpool for Bayern Munich in the summer transfer window would be a sideways move for Sadio Mane.
Liverpool and Bayern are two of the best and biggest clubs in the world and regularly challenge and win for major trophies.
Bayern win the Bundesliga title regularly and also compete in the Champions League.
Mane has won the Premier League, the Champions League, the FA Cup and the Carabao Cup with Liverpool, and maybe he fancies a new challenge.
