A local Senegalese fan who met Sadio Mane on the streets of Dakar was deeply impressed by the Al-Nassr forward.

When the Senegalese football enthusiast met Cristiano Ronaldo’s partner at Al Nassr, he lost control of his emotions and started crying.

While on international duty with the Senegalese National team, the former Liverpool winger encountered the neighborhood supporter.

In the video shared by ESPN on Instagram, Mane did not ignore the local fan, who was busy singing the player’s praises.

The Al-Nassr winger hugged and shook hands with the Senegalese fan whilst consoling him.

Mane has impressed since joining Al-Nassr from Bayern Munich this summer. He has formed a formidable partnership with Ronaldo.

The 31-year-old is expected to resume national team duty as the Teranga Lions take on Rwanda in a dead-rubber Africa Cup of Nations qualifier scheduled for September 9, Sofa Score reports.

The reigning champions have already secured their place in the tournament to be hosted by Ivory Coast in January next year.

They top Group L in the qualifying series with 13 points from five matches. Mozambique are on seven while Benin are third with 5 – both teams will jostle for the other ticket in the group.

Rwanda are bottom with 2 points.
