Sadio Mane earns 50 million in Saudi Arabia and the incredible way he uses his money

Senegalese Sadio Mané joined Liverpool in 2016 from Southampton, on Merseyside he made history by winning several titles with the Reds, most notably the Premier League title and the Champions League, where Mane shone and was part of a scary trident alongside Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino.

Despite this Mane has remained a humble player, although the Senegalese was the highest paid player in his time with Bayern Munich, so his fortune is immense. But this money has not been spent only on himself, as Mane helps his home village of Bambali, where there are already several works done by the former Reds star.

In his childhood Sadio Mané suffered from deprivation in his country, having to run away from home at 15 to fulfil his dream of becoming a professional footballer. So Mané knew about the deprivation in his hometown and has helped since in 2019 he donated $300,000 dollars to build a school, where he not only brought free education to his Puebla, but also donated laptops to the students as well as scholarships for the best ones.

Two years later, in 2021, he donated $500,000 to fund a hospital. In 2021 he also helped to bring electricity to the most remote villages in sub-Saharan Africa. The Senegalese striker also often gives away sportswear and accessories to the inhabitants of his village, making it clear that he is not a player who likes excessive luxuries, being a player more focused on helping others.

Recognition for his good work

In 2022, during the Ballon d'Or ceremony, he was presented with the Socrates Award, given to the player who has given the most to social causes during a season. This trophy was awarded when Sadio was already with Bayern Munich. So Mane makes it clear that his job is to help and not to boast about luxuries.
