Don’t see myself having rivalry with any player to be honest, claims Sadio Mane
Bayern Munich star Sadio Mane has refuted claims that he and Mohamed Salah are rivals and instead admitted that the media aggravated and exaggerated things. The duo spent five seasons playing together at Anfield and thrived for the Reds, winning the Premier League and Champions League.
