Bayern Munich has allowed Sadio Mane’s childhood friend, Desire Segbe Azankpo, to leave the club. The former Liverpool star’s departure comes just a month after the ex-Oldham flop joined a Belgian second-tier side.
Azankpo, who hails from Togo, was signed by Bayern Munich in September 2020. However, he failed to make a single appearance for the first team and spent most of his time with the club’s reserve side.
The 23-year-old forward has now joined RFC Seraing, a team competing in the Belgian First Division B. Azankpo will be hoping to revive his career and make a lasting impact at his new club.
It is worth noting that Azankpo has a close relationship with Senegalese international Sadio Mane. The two players grew up together in the same neighborhood in Senegal. Their friendship dates back to their childhood, and they have remained close ever since.
Azankpo’s departure from Bayern Munich marks another setback in his professional career. After leaving Oldham Athletic, where he struggled to make an impact, he had hoped to find success at the German club. However, his time at Bayern Munich did not go as planned.
Despite this setback, Azankpo remains determined to prove himself and make a name for himself in the world of football. Joining RFC Seraing presents a new opportunity for him to showcase his talents and fulfill his potential.
Bayern Munich, on the other hand, will continue to focus on their upcoming matches and strive for success in both domestic and European competitions. The German giants are known for their strong squad and will undoubtedly continue to attract top talent in the future.
