Liverpool have announced the signing of Sadio Mane from Southampton.
The 24-year-old Senegalese star has signed a long-term deal with Jurgen Klopp's side, after spending two years with Southampton. In his two years in England he has scored 21 league goals.
Mane entered the history books in May 2015 when he scored a hat-trick in less than three minutes against Aston Villa. It remains the quickest hat-trick in Premier League history.
