Three months ago he left Anfield to go to the Bundesliga with Bayern, but Sadio Mané still misses the reds. The 30-year-old Senegalese striker already has the respect of the Munich fans thanks to the three goals he has scored in the league and the Super Cup. Though Liverpool fans also have it in their hearts and show it to them every opportunity they have it close. He’s happy every time he sees the Merseyside team shield.

The African striker spent six years at Liverpool until last summer, when the German club paid 32 million euros to sign him. From 2016 until last season he played 269 games for the Reds and scored 120 goals. He won the Champions League in 2019 and the Premier League in 2020 being the star of the club alongside Egyptian attacker Mohamed Salah and Brazilian striker Roberto Firmino.
