Dakar, Nov. 28 (APS) – Liverpool striker Sadio Mané says humility, a quality that is often attributed to him, does not reflect "a lack of ambition" in his share.
"I do not have a huge ego. That does not stop me from being very ambitious, '' he said in an interview published in the Tuesday edition of the French daily L'Equipe.
Sadio Mané, who presents himself as a great admirer of his compatriot El Hadj Diouf, a double African Gold Ball in 2001 and in 2002, says that he often speaks to the latter.
Diouf, one of Senegal's qualifying heroes in the 2002 World Cup quarter-finals, "pushed" him to '' assert himself, '' he said, adding that he had listened to his predecessor Liverpool and have learned from him something "positive".
"But I do not like to put myself in front of the stage. I think we have to accept people as they are, with their qualities and their faults '', added the footballer native Bambali (southern Senegal), who, since his debut in football, aims to win the League of champions.
"In my youth, I went to work in fields where rice and peanuts are grown. And I keep doing it when I go back every summer, "he continued.
Sadio Mané confirms the information published in the press last April, according to which he built a school in Bambali, with his own resources.
"This is a project that is important to me, once every two weeks, I receive photos that show me the progress of the work," added Mané.
