Throughout soccer’s history, one of the most underrated regions of the world has always been Africa. So many of the great players in soccer history have come from the continent, but have been overlooked by many when considering them among the top players in the world. However, Sadio Mané is a player whose talents have forced the world to recognize him as among the world’s best.
Born in Bambali, Senegal, Mané took a love for soccer at a very early age. However, it was difficult for him to play the sport because his father, who was an imam, prohibited him from playing.
