The 28-year old left-winger, Sadio Mane, who plays for English football club,
Liverpool and the Senegalese National Football Team has tested positive for the
coronavirus, the club has announced in a statement on Friday. Sadio Mane was
highly involved in the recent successes of Liverpool in Premier League and on
