Bayern Munich’s Sadio Mane has on Thursday been awarded the African Player of the Year for the second time.

The Confederation of African Football seem to believe that the Senegalese forward is better this time than his former Liverpool teammate Mohamed Salah.

Mane tallied just ahead of the Egyptian forward in the voting, as well as his fellow Senegalese Edouard Mendy.

Edouard Mendy and Mohammed Salah lost out on the African Player of the Year Award

It’s the second time the 30-year-old, who joined Bundesliga champions Bayern last month in an initial €32-million ($32.5 million)-move, has won the award.

He was the winner of the award in 2019 which was the last time the award was held as CAF did not hold the annual celebration of African football in the intervening period because of the coronavirus pandemic.

Mane was in the Moroccan capital, Rabat, to receive the award having made a cross-Atlantic dash after he converted a penalty for his new club in a 6-2 pre-season friendly win over DC United.
