Bayern Munich star Sadio Mane has finally addressed the incident involving him and Leroy Sane, in which he allegedly punched his teammate after a Champions League game against Manchester City.
The brawl broke out in the Bayern dressing room after a 3-0 defeat at the Etihad Stadium in the first leg of their quarter-final tie in March. Mane admitted that he could have handled the situation better and acknowledged that such incidents can happen in the heat of the moment. In an interview with Senegalese television station 2sTV, 31-year-old Mane expressed his desire to move on from the incident, saying, "Something like this can happen. It happened. "We were able to solve this little problem. Sometimes it's good to solve problems, but maybe not like this. It is behind us now."

Mane's first season at Bayern did not live up to expectations, as he struggled with injuries and managed just 11 goals in 37 appearances. Speculation arose over a possible summer transfer, including a possible return to the Premier League. However, Mane confirmed his commitment to Bayern, saying, "If everything goes well, I will return to Bayern.
"It's been a very complicated season, but it happens. It wasn't a surprise for me. I expected it to be a bit complicated. It's normal. I like challenges and Bayern is a big challenge. Now it's up to me to give it." Depends. Everything to meet this challenge."

The Senegal international's comments may bring some relief to Bayern fans, as he shows his intention to stay and improve on his performances next season. While the spat with Sane raised concerns about squad harmony, Mane's willingness to address the issue and move on suggests a commitment to resolving the conflict and focusing on his responsibilities with the club.
