In some ways, it's fitting that Sadio Mane is moving to Munich.
For a number of Liverpool players, one of their best memories of the Senegal superstar came in Bavaria – long before his mesmerising display at the Allianz Arena in a Champions League last-16 victory in March 2019.
Back in the summer of 2017, just after Mohamed Salah had become Liverpool's record signing, Jurgen Klopp's squad had been invited by Munich to contest the Audi Cup, a traditional warm up tournament, along with Napoli and Atletico Madrid.
There was plenty of intrigue amongst the group over how Salah would adapt and he looked very sharp on the pitches at their base in Lake Tegernsee.
