SADIO MANE’S move to Bayern Munich is edging ever-closer after chiefs from the German club reportedly flew to England for talks with Liverpool.
A delegation from the Bundesliga giants are claimed to have jetted into the country to thrash out a deal for the 30-year-old forward after having two bids rejected.
Mane is already thought to have agreed personal terms with Bayern Munich over a three-year contract, but a transfer fee is yet to be agreed with Liverpool.
Now though Bayern sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic is leading a party to try and seal the deal, according to The Times.
A meeting is understood to be taking place today, with Bayern preparing an offer closer to the Reds’ valuation of the forward.
The Reds have already rebuffed two bids for Senegalese star Mane.

It’s understood the FA Cup and League Cup winners are looking for £42.5million in order to part ways with the superstar forward.
Mane has just one-year left on his current Anfield deal, which has led to two lowball offers from the Bundesliga champions.
The Reds initially rejected a £25m proposal, before doing the same with a £30m bid that was made up of a £23.5m guaranteed fee and £6.5m in add-ons.
Now though key figures from both clubs are set to meet face-to-face in an attempt to finally reach an agreement.

Mane has decided to pursue a new challenge after spending the last six years at Anfield.
He initially joined the Reds in a £34m deal from Southampton, and has won six trophies during his time in Merseyside.
Jurgen Klopp has already signed a replacement for the outgoing Mane in the form of £85m arrival Darwin Nunez.
