Al-Nassr are reportedly looking to offload Sadio Mane in order to free up an international spot, according to sources close to the club. The Saudi Arabian side are said to be keen on making room for another foreign player and Mane’s departure could pave the way for this move.
A club insider revealed, “Al-Nassr are in talks with Mane’s representatives about the possibility of him leaving the club. They are looking to bring in another international player and Mane’s spot is the only one available. It’s nothing personal against Mane, it’s just a matter of squad management.”
Mane, who joined Al-Nassr last year from Liverpool, has been a key player for the team. However, with the club looking to bolster their squad with more foreign talent, it seems his time at the club could be coming to an end.
When asked about the potential move, Al-Nassr’s manager commented, “We are always looking to improve the squad and bring in the best players possible. Mane has done a great job for us, but we have to make tough decisions for the benefit of the team.”
Mane himself has not commented on the situation, but sources close to the player have indicated that he would be open to a move if the right opportunity presented itself. It remains to be seen where Mane could end up if he does leave Al-Nassr, but there are sure to be plenty of suitors for the Senegalese international.
