Bayern suspend and fine Sadio Mane
Sadio Mane has been Suspended and fined by Bayern Munich following his altercation with Leroy Sane after this week’s Champions League loss to Man City.
The German club announced Thursday that Mane will not be available in their home game clash against Hoffeneim.
“Sadio Mane, 31, will not be in the FC Bayern squad for the home game against 1899 Hoffenheim next Saturday,” Bayern said.
“The reason is misconduct by Mane after FC Bayern’s Champions League game at Manchester City.

Newspaper Bild reported former City winger Sane was hit in the face by the Senegal attacker, suffering a cut lip after Tuesday’s loss.
