Bayern Munich have suspended Sadio Mané after he punched Leroy Sané in the face in a dressing-room argument after the team’s 3-0 defeat at Manchester City on Tuesday. Bayern said the 31-year-old former Liverpool forward would not be in the squad for Saturday’s home match against Hoffenheim and would be fined. A statement described it as punishment for “misconduct”, but did not go into details. Mané and Sané had argued during the game and their clash continued off the pitch. Bayern, managed by Thomas Tuchel, suffered their biggest Champions League defeat since a 3-0 loss to Paris Saint-Germain in 2017. Mané and Sané participated together in training on Thursday. The sanction clears Mané to be part of the return against City on Wednesday. Whether or not the player is selected by Tuchel for the contest remains to be seen. The Senegal international, who Bayern acquired for £35m after a glittering spell at Anfield, has missed a chunk of this season, including the World Cup, because of injury and has scored 11 goals in 32 Bayern appearances.
