Bayern’s Senegalese star Sadio Mane is a genuine man of the people, a footballer who stayed humble and accessible despite all the riches and the success he achieved. He demonstrated it again on Sunday morning when he stayed after the Bavarians’ training session and signed around 1,000 autographs for supporters!It’s not so rare to see Bayern organise open training sessions, where their fans can come, watch their favourite players train and spend some time with them. I love this pic and I love Sadio Mané, he is just what we needed at @FCBayern pic.twitter.com/4IqphHid8Y— Angie Ubben (@angieubben) August 31, 2022 After spending some 20 minutes speaking to head coach Julian Nagelsmann and his staff, the former Liverpool attacker strolled over to the fence, where hundreds of adoring fans were gathered. They were already taking autographs and selfies from Bayern first-teamers Matthijs De Ligt, Leon Goretzka, Manuel Neuer… And then Sadio came.##NAJAVA_MECA_6615579##Mane showed that he understands and respects the supporters. He stayed full 105 minutes and, according to Bild, signed over a thousand autographs. That takes a lot of patience, energy and dedication. And we can only salute this sort of behaviour, considering that we often see athletes dismiss people who pay money to watch them play. Mane gets it.

But it would be difficult to find a Bayern fan with a bad word to say for the Senegalese, who also took selfies with fans and chatted to a few of them.Sadio Mané signed autographs to the fans for 105 minutes today! The Senegalese took the time for every single fan – signing autographs for everyone, taking selfies and even joking with some [📸 @BILD] pic.twitter.com/liVU2krggb— Bayern & Germany (@iMiaSanMia) September 4, 2022 He’s down-to-earth, modest, charming, humble and very good at what he does. We can only wish more footballers followed Sadio Mane’s example.
