Liverpool hero Jamie Carragher has named former Southampton man Sadio Mane as Jurgen Klopp's best signing to date, comparing the in-form forward to Raheem Sterling, who is enjoying a stellar campaign at title rivals Manchester City.
Mane joined Liverpool from Southampton for £34m in 2016 and hit the ground running, scoring on his Premier League debut against Arsenal. He has since gone on to establish himself as a key member of Klopp's team and could yet take home the Premier League Golden Boot this season.
As reported in the Liverpool Echo, Carragher likened that Mane to Sterling at City in the same period.
He said: "
"But if you think about signings in the Jurgen Klopp era, I think he could be number one."
“The fact that towards the end of the season he’s been scoring vital goals, the first goal in games, maybe he has come into people’s attention more but when you think of how good Raheem Sterling has been at Man City these past few years, Mane’s numbers are exactly the same, playing in the same position, so it shows the impact he’s had.”
