Senegalese international Sadio Mane joined Liverpool from Southampton in 2016 and formed one of the strongest front threes with Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah, making 269 appearances, scoring 120 goals and providing 42 assists before leaving in 2022.
The 32-year-old attacker, who won the Champions League and Premier League, then had a disappointing year at Bayern Munich and is now in Saudi Arabia. Along with Cristiano Ronaldo and others, he leads the team’s attackers.
The Senegalese hero, who made his mark at Anfield, revealed his continuing good relationship with Dutch midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum, with whom he hoisted numerous titles at Liverpool, and confessed that they still keep in touch.
“Gini is one of my very good friends. And (with) Gini, it’s more than football, because our relationship came naturally.”
“Because, when I was in Liverpool, we came at the same time, and he is this kind of person that once he is in the team he becomes friends with everybody. Everybody likes him.”
“He is special, and this is the reason when I was there we’ve been good friends – and he was always in my house.”
“Sometimes he would call me to come to my house, and I’m like ‘No, not yet. Get out of here!’.”
“He always wants to make fun, and I like this about him. He has a good heart; I can speak about him until tomorrow non-stop.”
“He is amazing and we’re still keeping contact. And that’s really important,”
