Sadio Mane has explained leaving Liverpool for Bayern Munich.
Just crowned Africa's men's Player of the Year for a second time, the 30-year-old signed a three-year deal with 32-time German champions Bayern Munich in June.
"It was last year I took my decision to leave because I need a new challenge in my life," Mane told BBC Sport Africa.
"For me, it was the right time. I spoke with the coach [Jurgen Klopp] one year ago and talked to him about my desire to leave.
"If you see my story, I came from a small town - my life was always a challenge, so I want to challenge myself all the time."
