Sadio Mane proves yet again he's one of the nicest footballers around with lovely gesture to fan

Sadio Mane is an incredible footballer, but he may well be an even better person.

Back in February, we gave 11 examples of Mane proving he’s one of the nicest footballers around.

And we have another example to add to the list.

Prior to Senegal’s match against Benin on Saturday, Mane was involved in a wholesome meeting with a Senegal fan.

Mane is a hero in his country and a Senegal fan was overcome with emotion after meeting him.

While crying tears of happiness, the fan said, per Empire of the Kop: “Sadio, I love you so much. I even reached out to the people from your village just to meet you. Sadio, may God grant you a long life and fill you with health”.

Mane then pulls out a piece of paper and asks the fan to write down his number and promises to call him later.

It was a truly lovely moment and you can watch it below…
