The winger only managed seven goals in 25 Bundesliga appearances last season with Thomas Tuchel's side.

The Senegal international also landed in hot water following a reported scuffle with team-mate Leroy Sane after April's 3-0 loss to Manchester City in the Champions League.

The 31-year-old was then temporarily suspended by the German champions for one game and was also fined.

All that drama led to some negative headlines from the German media in the last few months and raised questions about the player's long-term future.

Mane, though, has followed Bayern for their pre-season training camp in Portugal.

That was where the Senegalese star was approached by a reporter who wanted to ask him a few questions.

However, the former Liverpool hero was in no mood to talk as he expressed his frustrations over the media's recent coverage about him.

Mane said: "You kill me every day, [now] you want me to talk to you. Come on."

The star forward has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia with Al-Nassr interested.

Reports suggest the ex-Southampton star is in talks with Cristiano Ronaldo's club.

And Bayern are prepared to sell Mane during the summer transfer window.
