Mane among final contenders for African Player of the Year
Liverpool forward Sadio Mane is among the final three contenders for the CAF African Player of the Year award.
The Senegal international was initially part of the five-man shortlist for the accolade, which has now been whittled down further.
Mane – who has scored eight goals in 18 games since signing for the Reds last summer – is joined by Borussia Dortmund’s Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Leicester City’s Riyad Mahrez in the remaining running for the honour.
The winner will be announced at a gala ceremony in Nigeria on Thursday January 5.
