#4 Sadio Mane (Senegal, Liverpool)
The Senegalese was a revelation for Liverpool last season, firing them to the UEFA Champions League title and also helping his club finish a close second in the Premier League. Sadio Mane's rise in the world of football has been prolific and this summer, he was the force behind Senegal's brilliant run in the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations.
Senegal reached the final of the tournament, only to come second against an equally brilliant Algeria team. The Liverpool man scored 3 goals and was selected in the team of the tournament.
Mane's pace and abilities on the ball make him extremely tricky to handle for the opposition. He has a swift change of pace and is also brilliant on the turn. The Senegalese is also strong enough to hold on to the ball to bring his teammates into the game. Jurgen Klopp used Mane's qualities to perfection last year and this time too, the Senegalese will be raring to go.
Mane scored 26 goals last season, including 22 in the Premier League and won his first Premier League Golden Boot. He is 4th in our list among the top 5 contenders for the Best FIFA Men's Player of the Year at the start of August.
