In his declaration, Sadio Mane stated his desire to “win everything” with Al Nassr.
Mane, a 31-year-old ex-Liverpool player, on Tuesday transferred from Bayern Munich to Al Nassr.
The following day, Mane practiced with the rest of the Al Nassr team for the first time. Mane is rumored to have signed a contract worth $830,290 per week in Riyadh.
Mane gave a bold initiation speech to his new teammates in front of them after Wednesday’s practice.

Mane introduced himself and said, “I am really happy to be part of you guys and really excited to start with you guys, of course,” holding a water bottle as if it were a microphone.
“Winning is our goal in everything. Everyone is undoubtedly prepared for it. What an amazing team they are. Let’s complete it jointly. I believe that working together will be successful.
The rest of the team, led by captain Cristiano Ronaldo, highly praised Mane’s statement.
In the previous season’s Saudi Pro League, Al Nassr came in second place.
During the 2023–24 season, Ronaldo, Mane, and company will compete in five competitions: the Saudi Pro League, Arab Club Champions Cup, AFC Champions League, Saudi Super Cup, and King Cup.
This season, Al Nassr has already played two games in the Arab Club Champions Cup, first drawing 0-0 with Al-Shabab and then defeating USM 4-1 of Tunisia.
If they win on Thursday against the reigning Egyptian champions Zamalek, they will advance from the group round.
