He's 18, he's worth 10 million and he's the new Sadio Mane, Klopp's new target

Winger Assane Diao's sensational start to the season has not gone unnoticed in the Premier League. At least four clubs on the islands are keeping tabs on him and are considering a move for him in future windows of opportunity. In just under three months, young Assane Diao has managed to become a more than useful asset for Manuel Pellegrini.

The 18-year-old winger made his first-team debut for Real Betis on 21 September (against Rangers in the Europa League) and has since gone on to make 19 official appearances (eight starts in La Liga). As usually happens in these cases, his performance has not gone unnoticed. In fact, a report published in the last few hours by teamTALK indicates that at least four Premier League clubs are keeping an eye on him. They are Manchester United, Liverpool, Aston Villa and Brentford.

However, the media adds that it is unlikely that these teams will make a move during the winter transfer window, as their managers prefer to keep an eye on him for a longer period of time before making a move. It is also unlikely that the Greens and Whites will facilitate his departure in the middle of the season.

<strong>The new Mane</strong>

Due to his qualities on the pitch, he is already starting to be named as the new Mané Sage, which has aroused the interest of Liverpool's German coach Jürgen Klopp, who before Thursday's Europa League group game in Belgium against Saint Gilloise, had asked the board to sign the Spanish player, who is valued at approximately 10 million.
