Liverpool midfielder Fabinho has said he tried to convince Sadio Mane to stay at Anfield before his move to Bayern Munich
Mane completed the move to the Bundesliga earlier this summer after six years stay on Merseyside but Fabinho was one who wanted him to continue his career at Liverpool.
The Brazilian revealed, telling the Athletic: "At the end of the season, I spoke a lot with Sadio. He told me about the situation that he could leave."
"I was always saying to him, ‘Come on Sadio, stay here. You can win the Premier League and the Champions League right here, don’t leave’. But I think he had already made his mind up. We had to respect that.
"Sadio had a really good story in a Liverpool shirt. He played for six years here and during that time he won everything you can win and he decided that he wanted a new challenge. That’s OK."
