Sadio Mane is no stranger to taking the mick out of his teammates, and now even Cristiano Ronaldo isn’t safe from the winger.
The former Manchester United striker scored in Al-Nassr’s 3-1 Arab Club Champions Cup against Raja CA, prompting Ronaldo to do his now signature ‘SUIII’ celebration.
Yet seen in the background is Mane copying Ronaldo, something the forward did time-and-time again during his time at Liverpool with the likes of his former Liverpool teammate Roberto Firmino.
Mane celebrating with Ronaldo feels like an alternate reality for Liverpool fans
Given Ronaldo’s links to United, it still feels weird that a Liverpool icon in Mane is now celebrating alongside the Portuguese superstar as a teammate for Al-Nassr.
Indeed, Mane heading to Saudi Arabia after just one year in Germany with Bayern Munich has been one of the more surprising moves of the summer, with Al-Nassr now stacked with internationally-renowned talent.
And it appears that the winger is enjoying his time already in the Middle East, with Mane seemingly brave enough to already have fun with Ronaldo on the pitch despite their Liverpool and United connections.
With new Saudi Pro League season starting later this month, Mane will be hopeful of finding his form and love football again, with Ronaldo now likely to help the former Liverpool star return to his best.
