It’s been in the air for several days and it’s now official, Sadio Mané is a Saudi League player. The Senegalese star will join Al-Nassr and Cristiano Ronaldo. After a season with Bayern Munich, the 31-year-old striker failed to win. Plagued by injuries and tensions with some of his teammates, the former Liverpool player did not enjoy the confidence of his coach Thomas Tuchel for the coming season.
The top scorer in the history of the Lions of the country of Teranga has signed a 3-year contract with Al-Nassr with a salary of around 40 million euros annually. Mané will notably evolve alongside Cristiano Ronaldo, Seko Fofana, Marcelo Brozovic, Alex Telles and David Ospina. At 31, he will discover his fifth championship after Ligue 1 (FC Metz), the Austrian Bundesliga (RB Salzburg), the Premier League (Southampton and Liverpool) and the German Bundesliga recently (Bayern).
