"I was wrong!" - Jurgen Klopp makes huge admission about Liverpool star Sadio Mane

Jurgen Klopp has revealed he was unimpressed by Sadio Mane on their first meeting. The Senegal international was Klopp's first big-money buy at Anfield when making a £30million move from Southampton in June 2016. "It was in Dortmund," said Klopp." There was a really young guy sitting there. His baseball cap was askew, the blond streak he still has today... He looked like a rapper just starting out. "I thought ‘I don’t have time for this’. Our team back then really wasn’t that bad. I needed someone who could handle not being a starter at the very beginning, someone I could develop. "I’d say I have a pretty good feeling for people, but I was wrong! I followed his further career and continuing success in Salzburg. In Southampton he just dominated. "It was great (when he joined Liverpool). Sadio wanted to work with me as much as I did with him, so it was a win-win situation." Source: Liverpool Echo
