After getting convincingly beaten by Manchester City, Bayern Munich stars Sadio Mane and Leroy Sane reportedly beat each other in dressing room fight.

Bayern Munich stars Leroy Sane and Sadio Mane reportedly had a physical altercation in the dressing after their devastating 3-0 defeat away at Manchester City.

The pair of forwards could be seen on the Etihad Stadium pitch having a disagreement while Bayern Munich got pummelled by their ruthless hosts, Manchester City.

German publication, Bild now reports that the disagreement boiled over into a physical altercation in the dressing room which led to a fight and Mane hitting Sane, leading to intervention from the rest of their teammates.

The physical altercation was reportedly a serious one and Mane landed a strike on Sane's face which led to a bruise on the German international.

Mane and Sane had an argument on the pitch last night, which continued after the final whistle and the Senegalese international did not like the way Sane spoke to him which led to him striking and leaving a mark on his lip.

The altercation began in the 83rd minute when Mane ran into space for a through ball rather than coming short to receive the ball from Sane.

This led to a heated argument between the pair in full view of the glaring Etihad crowd and the millions watching around the world.

Trouble in the Bayern camp

This is precisely the opposite of the kind of attention Thomas Tuchel would want around his team having only taken charge at the club less than a month ago.

In Tuchel's short reign at the Allianz Arena so far, Bayern Munich have crashed out of the DFB Pokal following a 2-1 defeat to Freinurg and now are on the brink of Champions League elimination following the devastating 3-0 loss to Manchester City in the first leg of the quarter-final.

With two wins, two losses and now two of his star players reportedly coming to blows, Tuchel's start to life at Bayern Munich has not gone according to plan at all.
