Bild added that Senegal international Mane, a two times African footballer of the year, had complained about the way Germany winger Sane spoke to him after the 3-0 defeat at the Etihad Stadium.

There was no immediate comment from Bayern Munich about the reported incident.

The result against City was Bayern’s heaviest defeat in the Champions League since a 3-0 loss to Paris Saint-Germain in 2017.
