# Liverpool: Fans hail Sadio Mane’s incredible gesture

**A number of Liverpool supporters have been hailing Sadio Mane after the Reds superstar contributed towards the building of a hospital in his hometown in Senegal.**

The 29-year-old has been one of the biggest figures of the Jurgen Klopp era at Anfield, maturing into a truly world-class footballer. Mane has [scored 97 goals in 218 appearances](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/sadio-mane/alletore/spieler/200512) for Liverpool, winning the Champions League and Premier League along the way.
