West Ham United midfielder Cheikhou Kouyate has sent a heartfelt message to Liverpool star Sadio Mane.
West Ham United’s Cheikhou Kouyate celebrates
Kouyate is West Ham’s man of the moment after scoring a fantastic goal in the crucial 1-0 win over Swansea City last time out.
But rather than basking in the glory of pushing the Hammers closer to safety after a torrid run of five consecutive defeats, the popular midfielder instead posted a message to his Senegal teammate Sadio Mane on Twitter.
One of the players of the season so far, Liverpool were devastated to see Mane ruled out for the season after being injured in the Merseyside derby.
The brilliant forward requires knee surgery and Kouyate was quick to send him positive vibes.
“I am praying for a quick recovery for you,” Kouyate posted on Twitter.
Liverpool’s Sadio Mane injured
“Be strong and think positive.
“You will come back stronger. Alhamdoulila for everything.”
Mane will have an operation on the injury today after damaging the cartilage in his left knee in a collision with Leighton Baines in the 3-1 win over Everton.
Reds boss Jurgen Klopp signed the Senegalese for £34 million from Southampton last summer and has started all but six of Liverpool’s league games this campaign exciting everyone with his talent.
