Bavarian Podcast Works: Weekend Warm-up Podcast Season 1, Episode 55 — The importance of the transfer of Sadio Mané; Diving into some Sasa Kalajdzic rumors; Robert Lewandowski might have to stay at Bayern Munich; and MORE!

(With Chuck out of pocket for a few days, Samrin stepped in to host the Weekend Warm-up and did so aplomb. Chuck is back next week for the Season 1 finale)

Bayern Munich made a big move official this week with Sadio Mané joining from Liverpool. He received a warm reception from the bosses in Munich. However, while the Robert Lewandowski saga was put on the backburner for a bit, this does not mean that that topic is by any means over. Both Mané and Lewandowski are discussions on today’s podcast which cover the following topics:

• Mané’s transfer can almost be regarded as a “status” transfer in that Bayern remains a hugely attractive destination.
• Robert Lewandowski might be forced to stay regardless of how he feels.
• Sasa Kalajdzic rumors persist; this might mean that Bayern might believe that there is a chance that Lewandowski will leave.
• Fans have short memories. Brazzo needs to keep up his streak of good transfers so far this summer.
• If Konrad Laimer is signed, Julian Nagelsmann’s job next season might get just a little bit harder.

As always, we love your feedback and appreciate all the support!
