Sadio Mane and former team-mate Philippe Coutinho

“He is a great, great player and I’m a little bit jealous that Barcelona got him,” said the Senegal international.“I would love to see him again but we we are happy for him.“He really enjoyed playing alongside his team-mates and gave everything, and is still young and can improve a lot.“I know him, he is a hard worker. Hopefully tomorrow he will still be in bed when we play!”Getty2

Sadio Mane has been a key part of Liverpool’s success

Manager Jurgen Klopp is pleased with the way his side moved on from the Coutinho furore with very little fuss.“Yes, we miss Phil Coutinho a lot because he is a world-class player and I loved working with him,” said the Reds boss.“But we had to deal without him and we did well. When I first heard he wanted to go to Barcelona I couldn’t imagine we would do that good but we did.”

Mane was asked by Spanish journalists about a potential move to LaLiga, having been linked with Barca’s arch-rivals Real Madrid in recent months.“Very good question! You guys write it…” was the response.“I respect LaLiga is a good league, they have great players, but the Premier League is also a wonderful league and every single player would want to play there.“So I have a chance to play there and I am very happy, so that’s cool.” But Spanish football has already left a lasting impression on Mane, and one former Barcelona player in particular.“Ronaldinho was one of my heroes. I really loved watching him play, especially here at Camp Nou,” he said.“I would have loved to play against him. Him not being here now is an advantage for us! I still love him. He is still my hero forever.“I loved his skills, his smile for sure. Maybe when I’m not smiling on the pitch people think I am angry. I would love to have his smile, but we’re not similar like that.”
