Mamadou Lamine Toure, cousin of Sadio Mane, will also continue his career in the oil country. But the young player will not play in the Saudi Professional League, Saudi Arabia’s first division.
Former resident of the Generation Foot (SenegalHe will indeed play in the waiting room of the elite, in the ranks of Al-Shuaib Club, a club based in Huraymaila. He signed up for two seasons with his new team, with a 50% resale percentage requirement set by his training club. Note that he will play in the same division as his compatriots Ablaye Vieux Mbengue and Mbaye Diagne (11 matches with A).
Even if he is still young (20 years old), Mamadou Lamine Touré – a priori – is not a crack. But in football, things can sometimes go faster than you think. His cousin Sadio, who has become a world football star, will no doubt remind him that when he was 20 years old, he was still a resident of FC Metz… in the French third division! In any case, with a cousin with such a resume, Mamadou Lamine Toure, also a striker, knows who to ask for advice in order to advance.

He met Cristiano Ronaldo!
Mamadou Lamine Toure will not meet on Earth beforehand neither his cousin Mane nor Cristiano RonaldoNor any other star in the Saudi Premier League. The National Cup is the only possibility to face them on the green rectangle. However, the young Senegalese player had already had the opportunity to meet the legendary Portuguese footballer, Mane’s colleague in the Al-Nasr team, who played the role of mediator in organizing the meeting. And so we can see the two players, one in the twilight of his phenomenal career and the other just beginning it, standing at the King Saud University Stadium (25,000 seats) in Al-Nasr. Nice pic!
