Senegal star Sadio Mané happy playing for Saudi club and denies being out of limelight

Associated Press  

YAMOUSSOUKRO, Ivory Coast — Senegal star Sadio Mané says he is very happy playing club soccer in Saudi Arabia and denied he’s getting less attention there than he would by playing in one of Europe’s “big five” leagues. “That’s what you think because I’m not in Europe,” Mané told reporters on Friday after scoring Senegal’s third goal in a 3-1 win over Cameroon at the Africa Cup of Nations. I’m not around as a football player.” Mané played for Liverpool and Bayern Munich before joining Saudi team Al-Nassr last year. “The rest, for me, doesn’t matter.” Senegal’s win on Friday secured its progress to the Africa Cup knockout stage with a game to spare.
