#9 – Sadio Mane

Tottenham Hotspur v Liverpool - UEFA Champions League Final
Tottenham Hotspur v Liverpool - UEFA Champions League Final

Sadio Mane was ranked at #9 last month, and he remains in the same spot. He started the month of June by winning the UEFA Champions League with Liverpool. While the forward did not contribute a goal or an assist in the match, it was his shot/cross that hit Sissoko on the arm and led to the penalty.

The Senegal star is now leading his nation in the Africa Cup of Nations and will be hoping to win it. He played one game in the tournament in June but did not end up on the winning side as Senegal lost 1-0 to Algeria.

Mane has had a good year so far and will be hoping to continue his form in both the Africa Cup of Nations and in the Premier League when it begins. He's slowly climbing up the order but is not expected to finish on the podium this year.
