Bayern Munich duo Sadio Mane and Leroy Sane are in hot water after the record German Champions lost 3-0 in the Champions League on Tuesday, April 11. It is reported that there was a bust-up between the duo where Mane is reported to have punched Sane, which left the German star with bleeding lips. Other players then separated Mane and Sane while Thomas Tuchel was left to rue for his team’s debacle in his first European game in charge of Bayern Munich.
Sky Germany reported on Wednesday that Sane's lip was bleeding after the altercation and the two players needed to be separated by their fellow team-mates in the dressing room. The two players were also seen in an altercation during the match when Bayern conceded three goals. The uncomfortable situation between the players saw wild scenes in the dressing room where Mane ended up landing a punch on the former Manchester City star.
Upon arrival in Munich, the team management took care of the matters by arranging a cab for Mane while Sane took the team bus from the airport.
Bayern are yet to comment on the incident and it is thought that they will carry out an investigation into the matter behind closed doors.
