Allan Saint-Maximin plays down Sadio Mane comparisons but wants to leave legacy

Allan Saint-Maximin has played down comparisons to Sadio Mane in an interview with French media. The Newcastle United winger spoke about his self-confidence but acknowledges his stats are behind some of the Premier League's best.

The Newcastle winger is intent on changing 'dimensions' in people's heads and wants to create a legacy in the game. Speaking to SoFoot.com, Saint-Maximin said "Those who have played with me know very well that in terms of pure quality, I have nothing to envy to Sadio Mané.

"The day when I have a player capable of finishing the actions, I will make seasons with 10-15 assists, and I will change dimension in the people's heads."
