They now value Mane as being worth £107.2million – a rise of £40.2m from 2018, putting him behind only Atletico Madrid summer signing Joao Felix on the list.
They rate Felix as now being worth £89.3m, an increase of £78.6m, with the Portuguese teenager looking one of the real rising stars of European football.
Still, Mane’s achievement deserves big credit as the Senegal international has arguably overtaken Mohamed Salah as Liverpool’s main man up front.
