Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 67 → 53). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 21, 59th of 66 of the 66 central midfielders in the Pro League. At 34 Mané is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.1 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

1.47 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 12 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 10 goals and 6 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 69.9% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.67 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.47 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Age curve. At 34, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 20.8, Mané carries the 59th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Pro League of 66. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.47 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
