Mane eventually joined Liverpool in a big-money move in 2016.

The Senegalese forward won the Champions League and Premier League titles before departing for Bayern Munich last season.

Toure, speaking on BBC Match of the Day Africa: Top 10, said: “I always wanted to play with him [Mane].

“When I was at City, at the time when he was at Southampton, I highly regarded him and I was asking some of my superiors to just sign him. But in the end it just didn’t happen.

“After that, Klopp had the eyes to get him and now look at what he did for Liverpool, he was brilliant. I like him, I like him as a player.”
