“That Life Is Not Made for Me” – $25 Million Good Samaritan Sadio Mane Said He Has No Desire to Have Cristiano Ronaldo’s ‘Extraordinary’ Lifestyle Back in 2022

Sadio Mane has been an astute piece of signing for Bayern Munich since last summer. Before that, he had a magical run for his club and country. Often compared to Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar, he helped Liverpool FC win the Premier League and the UEFA Champions League throughout his time at the club. His 6 years with the English side have seen him achieve incredible heights in his career.

Playing for Senegal, he led his team to win the African Cup of Nations in January last year for the first time in the nation’s history. Despite having achieved fairy tale success, he remains one of the most humble and down-to-earth personalities in soccer.

Having played for Southampton, Liverpool, and a few other clubs, the star has appeared in 375 matches at this point. He has also played close to a hundred games for his national team. Last year, he talked at a great length about his personality and lifestyle.

Sadio Mane didn’t want to live like Cristiano Ronaldo

He has achieved the heights many soccer players can only dream of. Despite all these accolades, he has remained one of the most down-to-earth players in the game today. In an interview last year, Mane revealed some insights about his morals and how he chooses to live his life.

Sadio Mane said, “I don’t want to give the impression of being a lecturer. But it is true that there are certain values circulating in football that bother me a bit based on my education. But, instead of criticising out loud, sometimes I prefer to distance myself a bit. The main thing is not to change, and I don’t think it has changed. And, for a boy who comes from a small town in Casamance, it is already a great victory to resist all that.”

During the talk, they asked the former Southampton star if he could live a life like Cristiano Ronaldo or Neymar. To the question, he replied, “No! I follow them on social media and that’s enough for me. I love their extraordinary life, but that life is not made for me.” While he is one of the biggest stars in soccer, he didn’t forget to give back to his community. Mane was rewarded for his social initiatives last year.

Sadio Mane won the Socrates Award

Mane has done quite a lot of work for the community in his native country, Senegal. From building hospitals to funding schools, he has been a treasure for his country. He also played a huge role in Senegal’s fight against Covid, as he was one of the biggest donors in combatting the disease.

France football recognized his humanitarian efforts and the Senegal international was awarded the Socrates Award in October last year. He was the very first winner of this new award that France football gave for social initiatives taken by soccer stars. The star will continue to work for society and earn the fans’ respect and administration for his nature.
