Liverpool v Manchester City - Premier League
Sadio Mane celebrates after scoring against Manchester City in the Premier League

Sadio Mane has developed under Jurgen Klopp to become one of the Premier Leagues' most exciting attackers since joining the Kop side from Southampton in 2016, linking up with familiar faces like Dejan Lovren and Nathaniel Clyne who are also from St. Mary's.

Mane is part of Liverpool fearsome front three with Firmino & Mohamed Salah that is terrorizing defenses both in the premier league and the Champions League, as the three have scored 68 goals.

Mane has scored 14 goals in all competitions surpassing the 13 goals he scored in all competitions last season with many more matches still to be played.

He has notched 6 assists so far, plus creating 33 chances this season. Mane's hat-trick in the UEFA Champions League round of 16 first leg match against Porto gives Liverpool a huge advantage as they head into the second leg.
