# Liverpool: Fans show appreciation for Sadio Mané’s charity donation

**Sadio Mané has donated €45,000 (£41,000) to the national committee in his home country of Senegal to help them fight against hardships suffered by recent events (via [BBC Sport](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/51930624)).**

After witnessing increased issues in Senegal due to current affairs, the Liverpool winger spontaneously decided to donate a sum of 30 million FCFA (Central African Francs) to his home country to help support them in this time of need.

The £135million-rated man ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/sadio-mane/marktwertverlauf/spieler/200512)) has also shared a video on social media asking others to take this situation very seriously.

Due to the current global situation, the Premier League has been [forced to suspend the current season](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/51867989) with hopes of continuing at a later date. Top-flight clubs have also instructed players to self-isolate and have called off all sessions scheduled at training facilities.

Liverpool players are currently training at home in self-quarantine after the club announced [Melwood will be closed](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/coronavirus-liverpool-confirms-training-plan-21688875) until further notice.

Many fans have flooded in to support Mané and his recent act of kindness, with fans even branding him a ‘hero’ and a ‘true gentleman’.
