"We signed him because we like pretty much everything about him, that is how it is.

FootballEarlier, Sports Brief had reported how Sadio Mane says his Senegal teammates are determined to ease the pressure on their manager Aliou Cisse by winning the Africa Cup of Nations.
The Teranga Lions are in the final and will be looking to make amends from their disappointment in 2019 when they went all the way only to lose to Algeria in the final.
Senegal has been among the favourites to win the tournament before it even began, and they have lived up to expectations, thus far.
They began their campaign with a narrow 1-0 win over Zimbabwe followed by successive 0-0 draws against Guinea and Malawi in Group B which were enough to take them to the last 16.
