Sadio Mane’s generosity outside of football is well known. A kind-hearted man who wants to help others less fortunate than him, particularly in his home village of Bambali in Senegal.
The Liverpool forward has funded drastic improvements to its infrastructure, spending over £700,000 on new buildings which include a hospital, school, post office and now a petrol station.
Sadio Mane has helped to transform his home village in Senegal.
In addition to the buildings that have helped to improve the quality of life, Mane has also gone one step further, donating €70 a month to families in the area, as well as €400 donations to the best achieving students at the local secondary school.
Equipment such as laptops, free sportswear and the installation of 4G internet has also been donated in a series of acts of kindness.
Mane was back in his home village last week alongside several other high-profile past and present Senegal internationals such as Papiss Cisse and El-Hadji Diouf to play in a football match at the school he went to as a child.
The 30-year-old expressed his desire for a new challenge following Liverpool’s Champions League Final defeat to Real Madrid and will undergo a medical on Tuesday before being officially announced on Wednesday.
Liverpool is set rto eceive an estimated fee in the region of £35.1m and have already made moves to bolster their forward line, bringing in Darwin Nunez from Benfica.
