Liverpool manager Klopp: I never spoke to Mane at Bayern

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp says he's not heard from Sadio Mane about his move to Al-Nassr.

Mane has already spoken about his disappointment at having to leave Bayern Munich this summer.

While the Senegalese wanted to fight for his spot in Germany, his move from Liverpool will only end up lasting a year.

Klopp told reporters: "I don't know what went wrong. When he left us, he left us on a high and in really good shape, a world-class player.

“New environment, new expectations maybe. I didn't speak to Sadio about it [his situation at Bayern].

"Sadio is a very proud man. We will see. The Saudi influence (on transfers) is massive, it is influential for us but we will have to deal with it."
