Liverpool player, Sadio Mane has disclosed that he intends to win titles for his club.
The ex Southampton star finished the 2018-19 PL season with 22 goals, joint top with Mohamed Salah and Arsenal’s Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
He has now said winning the individual prize was not his aim but his intentions are to do better than the previous season.
His words, “To be honest, when I was young I never thought about winning something like the Golden Boot – but every single day, I was thinking about winning a league [title] and the Champions League,”
“They were my big targets with a club. I am happy to win the Golden Boot and looking forward to scoring more goals than this season for the next few seasons.
“I am very happy to win it. I always try to score as many goals as I can for the team; for me, that’s the most important thing [helping the team].
“We were a bit unlucky because we wanted to win the league – this was our target – but in football, we try and try again. It didn’t happen this time, but we have the experience [of a title race] and now we are in a final, which is another target that’s very important for us.
“The league is behind us, Manchester City did so well and for sure they deserved it. We tested them, but we have to say congratulations and now we look forward to the final. It’s a big target for the season and hopefully, we can do it.”
“We have some experience about it and we know how it is because we were there last year and were unlucky we didn’t win, although Real [Madrid] were very good,” he continued.
“We are feeling really, really positive and for us, it would be a big, big thing [to win it]. Tottenham and ourselves are both really young, but we both have lots of experience and have played every kind of game.
“It is exciting and we want to win it, for sure – everybody knows. We’re not here to think twice about it, we’re just going to go there to try to win it.”
