Mane could make his debut for Bayern when they face RB Leipzig in the season-opener DFL Supercup on July 30.
The forward will leave as a Liverpool legend after helping the team to Champions League success in 2019 and their first Premier League title in 2020.
He also won the Club World Cup (2019), FA Cup (2022) and Carabao Cup (2022) as he scored 120 goals in 269 games in all competitions during his time at Anfield.
Liverpool have already signed Darwin Nunez from Benfica for a record fee worth up to €100m to replace the Senegal international.
Mohamed Salah will also remain at Anfield for at least one more season while the club have also signed Fabio Carvalho and Calvin Ramsay this summer.
