Muller: Mane has told me not to pass to Lewandowski by mistake
The two former teammates will clash when Bayern host Barça on Tuesday
Thomas Muller joked that Sadio Mane has been telling him not to pass the ball to Robert Lewandowski when the two old teammates meet on Tuesday.
Muller's Bayern Munich host Lewandowski's Barcelona after the Polish striker swapped Germany for Catalonia in the summer in a €45 million deal.
"For the past 10 days, jokingly, Sadio has been telling me not to pass the ball to Lewy by accident," Muller said in a news conference ahead of the game on Monday.
"It's important that we play our game, especially against the quick counter-attacks Barca have shown in the league so fat this season.
"We can't let Lewy play his game. He's a top striker, he's dangerous in or close to the box. We have to stop him from getting into shooting positions."
