'Sadio may have to leave Liverpool to realise his dream of winning the Ballon d'Or': Former Senegal international Diomansy Kamara urges compatriot Mane to leave Anfield

Sadio Mane may need to leave Liverpool in order to achieve his ambition of winning the Ballon d'Or, says former Senegal international Diomansy Kamara.

The 27-year-old forward finished fourth in the voting for the 2019 award, and this week he reiterated his desire to become only the second African player after George Weah to collect the prestigious honour.

However, former Fulham, Leicester City and Celtic striker Kamara is concerned that his compatriot's ambitions won't be fulfilled at Anfield.
