Liverpool forward Sadio Mane has sat down for a new interview with Spanish paper Marca. Mane has started the season strongly for the Reds.

The Senegalese international opened with a brace against West Ham. Mane followed that up with another goal against Crystal Palace.

Pressure has been increased on Mane to perform this season after the arrival of Xherdan Shaqiri.

In an interview, Mane was asked wether he was faster than Mohamed Salah.

He replied:

Yes, of course, I’m faster. Maybe not in short distances, but in 100 or 200 meters I win for sure .

Mohamed Salah has also scored twice in the Premier League this season.

On Liverpool’s ambitions to win the title this season, Mane said:

It is a great challenge, and while it is true that we have won trophies (recently) we’ve not won the league.

It’s part of this game and we have to do well to fix it this year. That is why we have signed great players.

We are a great club, Liverpool. We want to do something special. Now everyone is talking about us, but we have to go calmly, game by game. Let’s not talk about trophies now, it’s early. This has just begun.

Mane was asked which trophy he’d prefer to lift at the end of the season: the Premier League or Champions League? He replied:

Both, a big club like Liverpool should go for the two competitions.

On his own personal ambitions for the season, Mane was asked if he could improve on his 10 goals in both the league and Champions League last season. He answered:

Yes, I will try, I am still young and learning. But that’s not important. The essential thing is to improve as a team and to contribute more and more.
