Yaya Toure Wanted Man City To Sign Sadio Mane

Former Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure recently disclosed that he had suggested the club sign Senegal forward Sadio Mane during his time at City.

Mane had an impressive stint at Southampton from 2014 to 2016, scoring 21 goals in 67 Premier League appearances before joining Liverpool for a fee of £34 million.

Mane went on to become a crucial part of Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool side, contributing significantly to their success, including winning the Champions League in 2019 and securing Liverpool's first Premier League title in the 2019-20 season.

Expressing his admiration for Mane, Toure stated, "I always wanted to play with him."

Toure, who spent eight years at Manchester City from 2010 to 2018, winning the club's first Premier League title and the FA Cup, shared his efforts to persuade the club's management to acquire Mane during his time at Southampton. However, the move did not materialize.

Reflecting on Mane's subsequent success at Liverpool under Klopp, Toure acknowledged the German manager's astute decision to sign him, remarking on Mane's brilliance as a player.

Following his successful tenure at Liverpool, Mane joined Bayern Munich in June 2022 for a transfer fee of £35 million, leaving behind an impressive record of 120 goals in 269 games and six major honors won at Anfield.

Toure also commended Mane as a role model for his charitable work beyond football, citing him as a "big example" in that regard.

Kanu Set To Take Over As Enyimba Chairman

Reports have emerged indicating that former Super Eagles captain, Nwankwo Kanu, is being considered as the new chairman of Enyimba, the reigning champions of the Nigeria Premier League.

This development follows the dissolution of the former board of the Peoples' Elephant by the Abia State Government earlier this week.

Over the past 23 years, the team had been under the leadership of Felix Anyansi-Agwu, who steered Enyimba to an impressive nine NPL titles and two CAF Champions League victories.

Sources from Umuahia, the capital city of Abia State, suggest that Kanu, a former Premier League champion, has been earmarked for the prestigious position. With his illustrious career in football, Kanu brings a wealth of experience and expertise that could benefit Enyimba in their upcoming campaigns.

Enyimba's participation in the upcoming CAF Champions League adds further significance to this potential appointment. The club, known as the Aba giants, has a proud history and a strong fan base. With their eyes set on continental glory once again, having a figure like Kanu at the helm could prove to be a strategic move for the team's aspirations.

While this news awaits official confirmation, the possibility of Nwankwo Kanu assuming the role of chairman at Enyimba creates an air of excitement among football enthusiasts. It represents a potential merging of two Nigerian football icons, with Enyimba's rich legacy blending with Kanu's remarkable achievements on the global stage.

As the story unfolds, fans and stakeholders eagerly await further updates on this development, which has the potential to shape Enyimba's future trajectory and further elevate Nigerian football on the continental stage.
