Sadio Mane has revealed how Cristiano Ronaldo backed his decision to leave Liverpool and sign for Bayern Munich after the pair bumped into each other on holiday.
Mane, 30, ended his six-year spell on Merseyside in July when he joined German giants Bayern in a £27.4million transfer deal. The move has left Liverpool weaker in attack, while it hasn't gone swimmingly for the injury-hit Senegal international either, having played just 25 minutes of football in the last four months, a period in which he agonisingly missed World Cup.
Nevertheless, five-time Ballon d'Or winner Ronaldo reckons that it's the right fit. "I met Cristiano Ronaldo in Mallorca before this season after my move was completed," Mane revealed in an interview with German newspaper Bild. "He congratulated me and told me, 'A great club! This is a great step for you!'"
