Bayern Munich beat Borussia Dortmund to a spectacular Bundesliga title on Saturday but Sadio Mane did not feature in their 2-1 win over Cologne amid reports he could be sold.

Sadio Mane could not come off the bench on Saturday
Bayern Munich won the Bundesliga in a spectacular fashion on Saturday - all with the sight of underwhelming striker Sadio Mane from the bench.
Mane, 30, has been tipped to leave after a string of weaknesses in Bavaria, such as being suspended by the club for allegedly hitting teammate Leroy Sane during a heated altercation in the dressing room. Struggling to get back into form under Julian Nagelsmann and Thomas Tuchel, the former Liverpool hero has failed to display the impressive form typically seen in his six years at Anfield.
On Saturday, Mane didn't even get a chance to stride, as Bayern boss Tuchel decided not to bring the 30-year-old on to the pitch, despite the German giants pursuing their goals in the burning embers. moribund. After equalizing for rivals Cologne in the 81st minute, Bayern had little time to find a winner to beat Borussia Dortmund - which notably drew 2-2 at home to Mainz - to claim the title. . When Bayern were caught and Dortmund returned to the top of the table, Tuchel looked for replacements and brought in teenage duo Jamal Musiala and Mathys Tel in place of Mane. Four minutes into the field, Musiala scored a stunning goal to make it 2-1, helping Bayern to their 11th consecutive German title as they beat a frustrated Dortmund on goal difference.
Mane was one of only four players to be named in the matchday squad by Tuchel, but did not feature in the match against the host Cologne. Throughout the thrilling match, the Senegal star was benched by reserve goalkeeper Sven Ulreich, defender Daley Blind and full-back Josip Stanisic.
Although there is information that Mane is determined to prove himself at the Allianz Arena, the Bayern board is ready to listen to offers. Chelsea have recently been interested, while Manchester United considered a move before the former Southampton man joined Liverpool in 2016 as Jurgen Klopp's first major signing.
Mane's departure is likely to be one of many events in Munich this summer, with CEO Oliver Kahn and sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic confirming their departure less than an hour after the title consecutive number 11 is confirmed. Minutes later, Kahn hit back at his dismissal, saying on Twitter that he was "banned" from attending the match in Cologne.
"I wanted to celebrate with you, but unfortunately I can't be with you today because the club has banned me," the legendary former Bayern goalkeeper wrote in a message to fans. “I am looking forward to next season. We won't just be the 12th German champions!
Meanwhile, Salihamizic - primarily responsible for Bayern's transactions in the transfer market - said in a statement:
"I am proud to have had the sporting responsibility of FC Bayern for almost six years. I would like to thank all the players, the coach, the entire team behind the team and the staff."
