Sadio Mane made a special request to Liverpool after he and strike partner Mohamed Salah returned from Africa Cup of Nations duty.
The two Reds superstars went head-to-head in the final of the competition earlier this month, as Mane’s Senegal edged out Salah’s Egypt in the showpiece match in Cameroon.
Indeed, it was Mane who dramatically struck the winning penalty – having spurned a spot-kick opportunity in normal time – to seal victory for the Senegalese team, his nation's first-ever title.
