Sadio has been joking telling me not to make a mistake and pass the ball to Lewandowski – Thomas Muller opens up on Mane teasing him ahead of Bayern Munich vs Barcelona

By Apratim Banerjee Modified 13 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Sadio Mane has joked with Thomas Muller about Robert Lewandowski Thomas Muller recently revealed that Sadio Mane has jokingly asked him not to pass the ball to Robert Lewandowski when Barcelona and Bayern Munich face off in the UEFA Champions League on September 14. Muller and Lewandowski were teammates at Bayern Munich for nine years and formed a formidable partnership. They won eight Bundesliga titles and a Champions League together. However, Lewandowski left the Bavarians to join the Catalan club at the start of the summer transfer window. The Polish striker will make a return to the Allianz arena as Bayern Munich host Barcelona. Speaking ahead of the game, Muller revealed how Bayern's new signing Mane had joked with him as he told SPORT: "Sadio has been joking telling me not to make a mistake and pass the ball to Lewandowski during the game. We have to play our game tomorrow and not focus too much on Lewy." The German forward further went on to explain how his understanding with Lewandowski grew over time during the Polish superstar's stint at the club.

Muller said: "Our connection on the pitch grew over time. But now we have a lot of versatile players up front and we don't have a single reference. Opponents don't know who the regular striker is and we have to make it work." Lewandowski has started his career in Spain in style. He has scored nine goals in six games for the Blaugaranas, including a hat-trick in the Champions League. Barcelona currently sit in second spot in the La Liga table.
