The partnership of CR7 and Sadio Mané isn't going anywhere. As of Thursday, February 26, 2026, reliable Saudi sources and OneFootball have confirmed that Sadio Mané is set to sign a significant contract extension with Al Nassr, rewarding his exceptional form throughout the current 2025/26 campaign.
After a historic January where he led Senegal to their second AFCON trophy (earning Player of the Tournament honors along the way), Mané returned to Saudi Arabia on a mission. His performances have been a primary reason why Al Nassr currently sits atop the Saudi Pro League table.
The "Dazzling" Form: 2025/26 Campaign
Mané has silenced critics who suggested he was past his prime after leaving Bayern Munich. This season, he has transformed into one of the league's most consistent playmakers.
Goal Contributions: Mané has registered 15 goal contributions (8 goals, 7 assists) in just 23 matches across all competitions this season.
The "Al-Najma" Masterclass: Just yesterday (Feb 25), Mané found the net again in Al Nassr’s dominant 5–0 victory over Al-Najma, latching onto a pass from Cristiano Ronaldo to seal the rout.
The New Signing Synergy: The addition of Kingsley Coman and Joao Felix to the attack has allowed Mané more freedom to operate as a creative winger rather than just a traditional goalscorer.
The Contract Details: A Life in Yellow
Mané's original deal was set to expire in June 2026. The new proposal reflects the club's desire to keep its "European core" together as they chase a historic treble.
Fan Fact: After initially being "surplus to requirements" in the eyes of some fans last summer, the "Sadio! Sadio!" chants now ring the loudest at Al-Awwal Park. He is currently the club's most popular foreign star after Ronaldo.
The Verdict: By securing Mané’s future, Al Nassr has ensured their frontline remains the most feared in Asian football. With the league title and the AFC Champions League 2 both within reach, the "Mane Effect" is stronger than ever.
