#8 Sadio Mane (Senegal)

Manchester United v Liverpool - Premier League
Mane is one of the best African players

Last year, Mane's goals brought Senegal to the World Cup as they came out the top in Group D of the African qualifiers.

Mane is one of the best forwards the country has. Looking ahead, he will certainly play a vital role in his country's competitions if he is able to stay away from injuries. After making 50 appearances for Liverpool, Mane has scored 21 goals. This season, the winger also scored his first hat-trick for the Reds, becoming a vital player at Anfield.

The pacey winger is good with the ball at his feet and always looks eager to regain possession. Although Senegal enter the competition with low expectations, the team can expect a great and consistent performance from Mane. He will definitely be on the plane to Russia.
