Sadio Mane shuts down Mohamed Salah rivalry claim after Liverpool exit

Sadio Mane has played down the suggestion he has a poor relationship with Mohamed Salah, insisting there is no rivalry that exists with his former Liverpool team-mate.

Mane left Liverpool this summer to pursue a new chapter at Bayern Munich, having spent six successful years at Anfield. The Senegalese star formed a devastating partnership with Salah, as well as Roberto Firmino, though some believe the former Southampton man never received the same level of praise as his counterparts.

Claiming the Africa Cup of Nations earlier this summer as well as helping his home national qualify for the World Cup, both of which occurred at the expense of Salah and Egypt, has resulted in Mane being voted the 2022 African Player of the Year ahead of Liverpool's No.11 and Chelsea's Edouard Mendy.
