The Senegal star, 30, penned a three-year deal at the Allianz Arena worth \u00a3250,000-a-week as he opts for a \u2018new challenge\u2019 in Germany after six successful years at Anfield under Jurgen Klopp,<\/strong> when he won six trophies.<\/p>\n Still held in such high regard on Merseyside, Mane invited the club website to conduct an interview at his home in Mallorca, where he spoke about his six-year stay and was first asked how it felt to no longer be a Liverpool player.<\/p>\n \u201cObviously it is strange \u2013 really, really strange \u2013 to no longer be a Liverpool player after six years spent at Anfield,\u201d Mane said.<\/p>\n \u201cBut of course I had a great time, an unbelievable time, and since my first day I really, really enjoyed training, playing, at Anfield especially and in front of these amazing supporters. Now it\u2019s come to the end, so what can you say?\u201d<\/p>\n Mane \u2013 who says he has sent a long text to the squad and staff to say goodbye \u2013 also detailed why he decided to leave Liverpool and the Premier League, insisting his life is always about \u2018being challenged.\u2019<\/p>\n \u201cWhen it came I said to the club that I want to leave, I want to go somewhere else to see a new challenge,\u201d he disclosed.<\/p>\n \u201cIt is not anything else, it is just a challenge because for me I want to always be challenging myself to get better and better.\u201d<\/p>\n Mane also paid tribute to his famous \u2018front three\u2019 team-mates Mo Salah and Roberto Firmino, whilst also having a cheeky nod towards new team-mate Manuel Neuer when asked his about his best goal in a Reds shirt.<\/p>\n \u201cI will say my first goal at Emirates Stadium against Arsenal on my debut. And then after, my second goal, I will say against Bayern Munich, against Manuel Neuer!<\/p>\n \u201cSorry Manu, I am coming but I think the second goal was also unbelievable! So, I will pick these two goals,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n \n\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Sadio Mane\u00a0admitted it was \u2018really strange\u2019 to no longer be a\u00a0Liverpool\u00a0player as he conducted a farewell interview following the completion of his move to\u00a0Bayern Munich.
