The 32-year-old is closing in on his first season in the Middle East, during which he has contributed to 30 goals in 42 matches. 

Despite his inspiring numbers, Mane's form has been a mixed bag at different times in the 2023/24 campaign. 

The ex-Liverpool superstar has been criticised by supporters and sections of the media in Saudi, with the player believed to be considering a return to Europe. 

According to Senegalese website Sini News, citing reports in Turkey, Mane has not closed the door on moving back to the European continent despite being under contract until 2026. 

It is said Turkish giants Galatasaray had previously expressed an interest in the Senegal international, who would need to negotiate his departure with Al Nassr's football chiefs. 

Mane has reportedly admitted his best footballing periods came during his time in the Premier League, where he represented Southampton and Liverpool. 

Seeking a new challenge in 2022, the winger decided to call time on his Anfield career in favour of a switch to the Bundesliga.

In Germany, Mane's form declined significantly before he chose to join Cristiano Ronaldo at Al Nassr in 2023.
