Mane receives a record penalty for a shot

class=”sc-3778e872-0 cKDKQr”>

Sadio Mané (31) pays a high price for this blow. After losing 3-0 to Manchester City, he punched teammate Leroy Sane in the face. Bayern Munich fined him twice for this.

He was not in the selection against Hoffenheim (1-1) and will have to pay. Mane has to pay more than 300,000 euros. Bavaria has never handed out such a high fine.

Not exactly a weekly wage

“According to our information, an amount that goes well beyond 300,000 euros is a very, very heavy fine for Mane,” said Bayern expert Florian Plettenberg at “Sky90”. Converted, that is not really a week’s wages. He would earn about 22 million a year, which amounts to 423,000 euros a week.

Mane is not the first Bayern player to be fined. So far no one has had to pay that much. Franck Ribéry defeated Arjen Robben in 2012, costing him 50,000 euros. Philipp Lahm had to pay the same amount when he publicly criticized the club’s transfer policy in 2009.

Oliver Kahn, now on the Bayern board, criticized newcomers Ribery and Luca Toni in 2007. Behavior that was fined 25,000 euros. Two years later, Toni had to pay the same amount when he fled the stadium after his substitution and expressed his frustration on Italian television.

But not only Bayern punish their players for inappropriate behavior. Record holder is Schalke. Rafinha traveled to the Brazilian national team in 2008 without permission – it cost him 700,000 euros.

Embolo holds the Gladbach record

Breel Embolo didn’t have to dig that deep into his pocket. Nati’s Swiss player is the record holder for fines at Gladbach. In 2021 he violated the Corona rules by going to a party. When the police arrived, he fled over the roof to an adjoining apartment and hid in the bathtub. The punishment? About 200,000 euros.

Another well-known player in this country has already suffered in the Bundesliga: Raul Bobadilla. In 2011 he insulted the referee after a red card and kicked in a door. That cost him 50,000 euros.

Regardless of his penalty, Mane should have no future at Bayern. Deployed last summer as a replacement for Lewandowski, he has not been able to convince so far. “As far as I know, Bayern will do everything they can to get rid of Mane,” said Plettenberg. “According to my information, he does not fit into Tuchel’s plans and is a player who is being criticized internally.” (bir)
