Arsenal has been named as one of the clubs who could sign Sadio Mane after he became surplus to requirements at Bayern Munich.
The attacker is an accomplished Premier League player after years on the books of Liverpool and moved to Bayern in the summer.
The Bavarians hoped he would score the goals Robert Lewandowski provided before he departed, but Mane has struggled.
He also fought with Leroy Sane and is now set to leave Germany when this term finishes. His huge salary means the Premier League is his most likely destination.
The Sun named clubs who could move for the Senegal star and added Arsenal into the mix as they need his experience in winning the Premier League as well as the Champions League.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Mane was one of the best players in England when he was on the books of Liverpool and did well in Europe as well.
However, he is not getting any younger and his struggles in Germany could be because of his age.
If we add him to our squad, he must play, and that might be an issue for our current attacking options.
Most of them have worked hard to earn their starting spot and it would be unfair to take it from them because of a more experienced player. who appears on a downward curve

Sadio was my favourite Liverpool player and how they have missed him. Not just his goals and selfless attitude, but also his pressing game. I haven’t seen him play since his arrival in Deutschland and although he is possibly past his best now and getting on, I’d love to see him at Arsenal. No doubt many will turn their nose up at this suggestion. He can play for us as long as there is a clause in his contract forbidding him from assaulting any of his team mates (at least in public).
Meaning he can assault them in private. I think that’s fair
Punch-ups have happened many times behind closed doors dgr8xt. I say allow the boys to let off steam if it helps them come match day. I’ve heard some stories in my time.
However, this suggestion is at odds with a comment I made not 20 minutes ago on another thread elsewhere. So I’m consistently inconsistent
We can all remember Dwyer/Bower punching each other during a game while teammates at Newcastle!!
No need for any nose turn on this one; Mane would be a great addition to the squad. And a lot better than Zaka, too. Give the guy a break about assaulting team mates. We could make good use of his killer instincts.
Yes Rfrancis, we’re on the same wavelength. Even if he was here for one season he would be a most valuable asset. Twice the player Jesus is, so why not take him. If Starboy can hold down the kind of big bucks reported, then Sadio can have a decent salary too, but short-term.

I kind of agree with you on this one.
But I would prefer a one year loan move.
This then gives us a chance to loan Balogan for a 6 months to a newly promoted PL club and then see if he is upto the task from Jan onwards.
Mane is a good player and he can be a good signing to the gunners because we need players who already have experience in both UCL and EPL. The Senegal can be a good contributor to our squad and rotation is very important.
MANE WILL NOT BE COMING TO US. Not a shred of truth in this false report.
makes no sense to sign an ageing player who is on his dowmhill slope, though still decent, but willl want far too much wages and is not a natural fit for our harmonious dresssing room, imo.

RealTalk…Thank you
No way we are going for him. This is pure fodder.
Maybe Arsenal should invite the following players to a trial,
Kante
Mane
Gundogan
Zaha
