Ghana prospect and Brighton and Hove Albion defender Tariq Lamptey has named Senegal and Liverpool ace Sadio Mane among his toughest opponents faced in the Premier League.
In his second season of senior football, the 20-year-old England-born player has earned a place among the breakout stars of the term, owing to his fine performances for the Seagulls.
While carving out a reputation for himself, he has had to come up against the Liverpool star, whom he could potentially be also playing against at the delayed 2021 Africa Cup of Nations in January, should he accept Ghana's request to represent the country of his parents.
