Cristiano Ronaldo and my son are like brothers — Sadio Mane's mother

Mane joined Al Nassr from Bayern Munich in the just concluded summer window, teaming up with iconic forward Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Senegalese had struggled to make an impact in Germany and the Saudi Pro League offered him a fresh start.

After a few months in the Middle East, the ex-Liverpool man has forged a strong bond with Ronaldo, scoring six times in eight games, and his mother Satou Toure believes the pair are as close as brothers.

She said via 9NFCBALL: 

“Sadio and Ronaldo are like brothers, and the Al-Nassr team is a close-knit family. “I have a feeling that Al-Nassr will win the league.”
