A steady rate of statistical improvement during his three seasons at Liverpool has elevated Sadio Mane to his status as one of Europe’s best forwards.
Signed from Southampton in the summer of 2016, Mane’s goalscoring output has increased year-on-year and hit what counts as his high watermark to date in 2018-19.
After taking the club’s No.10 shirt ahead of the campaign, the Senegal international scored 26 times in 50 appearances across all competitions to help the Reds win the Champions League, their first piece of silverware since his arrival at Anfield.
His total of 22 goals in the Premier League - which played a crucial role in Liverpool’s amassing of a club-record 97 points - earned him the division’s Golden Boot, along with teammate Mohamed Salah and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang of Arsenal. 
A flexible forward who allies lightning pace and ruthless finishing with acute tactical awareness, Mane primarily operates from the left of Jürgen Klopp’s devastating front three alongside Salah and Roberto Firmino.
Excluding qualifiers, Mane scored in every round of the 2017-18 Champions League - including the final where Liverpool lost out to Real Madrid - and played in all 13 of the Reds’ matches in the competition as they went one better by beating Tottenham Hotspur 12 months later.

Liverpool's season so far: August

A fruitful August featured a perfect start to the Premier League season and UEFA Super Cup glory for Liverpool. Having begun the month with a penalty shootout defeat by Manchester City in the FA Community Shield, the Reds bounced back immediately to beat Norwich City 4-1 at Anfield on the opening day of the top-flight campaign. An own goal by Grant Hanley and strikes from Mohamed Salah , Divock Origi and Virgil van Dijk - who would be named UEFA Men's Player of the Year later in August - saw Jürgen Klopp's side surge into a four-goal, half-time lead. An eventful first 45 minutes also saw Adrian make his debut for the club just four days after signing, the goalkeeper replacing the injured Alisson Becker for his first of 11 consecutive appearances in the league and Europe.
