In 2012, he moved to Austria. There he played for Red Bull Salzburg in the Austrian Bundesliga. He won the Austrian Bundesliga and Austrian Cup in 2014 with Salzburg. In 2015, he moved to Premier League club Southampton.[1]

In 2015, Mané set a new Premier League record for the fastest hat-trick. He scored three times in 176 seconds (two minutes and 56 seconds) during a 6–1 win over Aston Villa.[2]

Mané signed for Liverpool in 2016 for a fee of £34 million. At the time, this made him the most expensive African player in history.[3] In his second season with Liverpool, he scored in the 2018 UEFA Champions League Final in his side's 3–1 loss to Real Madrid. This made him the first Senegalese to score in the final of the competition.[4] The next season, Mané won the 2018–19 UEFA Champions League with Liverpool, defeating Tottenham Hotspur 2–0 in the final.[5] The same season, he was the joint-winner of the Premier League Golden Boot with 22 goals.

During the 2019–20 season, Mané scored two goals in the UEFA Super Cup against Chelsea as Liverpool won on penalties. He also played in the Liverpool's first FIFA Club World Cup final win. In January 2020, he was named CAF African Footballer of the Year. Liverpool went on to win the club's first Premier League title, and first league title since 1990, at the end of the season.
