Football pundit Jamie Redknapp believes that Sadio Mane, with his blistering pace, will give a different dimension to the Liverpool team the new season.

The former Reds star has put the Merseyside club's £30million summer signing at no 8 in his list of '10 players to watch in Premier League next season'.

He writes for the Daily Mail: “Mane caused so many problems playing for Southampton against Liverpool that I'm not at all surprised they have signed him.

“The winger will have to justify his £30m fee but he gets fans out of their seats — just look at when he broke Robbie Fowler's record for the fastest Premier League hat-trick.

“Liverpool have been crying out for someone who can go past people and put in good crosses. Adam Lallana and Philippe Coutinho want the ball to feet but Mane can give Liverpool a different dimension running in behind with his blistering pace."
