Saudi Arabia continues to be the league to watch around the world. They have signed some of the best players in European football. Not only Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema, but more and more players are deciding to make the leap to pursue their professional careers in Asia. The latest to join the ranks is Sadio Mané, the renowned winger and international striker for the Senegal national team. 

And it is even more striking that his arrival in the Arab country is to join Al-Nassr to form a duo that is expected to be lethal alongside the legendary Portuguese Dos Santos Aveiro. Mané's arrival comes after a year at Bayern Munich, a club where he was unable to establish himself and, on the contrary, had several off-field problems. Despite winning the German Bundesliga with the Bavarian club, he was not able to be an undisputed player in the plans of coaches Julian Nagelsmann and Thomas Tuchel.
 

While Cristiano Ronaldo is the main attraction in the Arab Premier League, the arrival of Sadio Mané is not far behind, as he proved in his great spell at Liverpool that he is a player of great quality. "Leaving Bayern Munich hurts me. I would have wished for a different ending. I know I could have helped the team this season. I wanted to prove that to everyone this time. However, I only wish the club and the fans the best for the future," was Mané's sad farewell to Germany, having scored 12 goals and provided six assists in a total of 38 official matches.

The celebration

What several Liverpool fans didn't like was Sadio Mane's celebration during Cristiano Ronaldo's goal by doing his classic move of the player who had a long run with our rivals Manchester United.
