While Mohamed Salah mostly gets the limelight for his goalscoring attributes, it is Sadio Mane who is the most important signing that Jurgen Klopp has made in his career as Liverpool manager, according to Reds legend Jamie Carragher.

The former defender believes that Mane is the best signing of Klopp’s era at Liverpool. Mane was the first big signing that Klopp made and it allowed Liverpool to qualify for the Champions League in the German’s first full season at Anfield.

“He seems to go under the radar, certainly since Mo Salah came in, and you can understand that to a certain extent," he told Sky Sports.

"But if you think about signings in the Jurgen Klopp era, I think he could be number one.

“When he came it wasn’t the team it is now. He was the first big signing and Jurgen Klopp had to get that one right really. That signing virtually got Liverpool into the Champions League in Jurgen’s first full season.
