Senegalese striker Sadio Mané did not appreciate one of the questions he was asked in the mixed zone after the victorious match against Cameroon.
Al Nassr striker Sadio Mané has little sympathy for the analyzes according to which he lost global recognition by leaving Europe for the Saudi Pro League.
Mané defends the Saudi championship
The former Liverpool striker left Bayern Munich for Al Nassr last summer. He chose to go into exile in the Gulf rather than continue to play in the biggest competitions. For many observers, it is because he no longer has too many ambitions.
Mané heard this remark directly from a journalist after the match against Cameroon at the CAN. It’s an understatement to say he didn’t like it: “That’s what you think because I’m not in Europe.” It’s sad for you. Because, for you, if you don’t play in Europe, it doesn’t matter.”
Mané did not go so far as to say that the Saudi Pro League is better than Ligue 1 as Cristiano Ronaldo did but he also spoke highly of the Saudi championship. “Fortunately, I can say that the Saudi championship is a very good championship, followed by everyone all over the world, so for me, as long as I do my best and have fun every minute, it’s Most important. The rest, for me, doesn’t matter.”
