Following a heavy defeat to Manchester City in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals fixture, two players in the Bayern Munich dressing room Sadio Mane and Leroy Sane were said to have engaged in an exchange of blows.
This had led Bayern Munich to release an official statement about the incident indicating that Mane would not be part of the team for the Bundesliga fixture over the weekend against TSG Hoffenheim. It was also revealed that the Senegalese would be fined for his action after the game.
