Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Fans hail Bayern Munich’s Muslim players Sadio Mane and Noussair Mazraoui upholding their faith by not holding a glass of Paulaner Munchen beer alcohol during Oktoberfest photoshoot. (Read More Here).
Sadio Mané: “It’s really important for me to be loved. I always want to do my best, make the fans happy and proud at the same time. For me that’s an incentive and a motivation to give my best everyday on the pitch.”
Sadio Mané during the Paulaner event: “It feels like I’ve been here for a very long time. Even though changing clubs is not always easy, I’m very lucky to be here. I’m very happy and proud to be part of this club.”
This is not the first time that Mane’s religious beliefs have shone through as he also respectfully asked Takumi Minamino to put a bottle of champagne down earlier this year when the pair were celebrating Liverpool’s Carabao Cup final win against Chelsea.
Although he did look a little awkward at the event, Mane still took his place in the front row alongside the rest of the squad dressed in Lederhosen, and he has received plenty of praise from fans on social media for not being pressured into holding a beer and remaining true to his religion.
Reactions below:
Fabrizio: Bayern Munich star Sadio Mane looks awkward as team-mates raise a pint of beer for Oktoberfest photoshoot… fans praise him for ‘staying true to his beliefs.’
Michael: Don’t be shy of your faith. And don’t succumb to mob opinion and compromise your religion. This is Sadio Mane in the picture. He’s the only one that’s not holding a cup of beer because of his faith. In Islam, alcohol (khamr) is totally forbidden.
Muhammad: Sadio Mane didn’t pose with a beer with his teammates in the sponsored team photo.
Ibrahim: Sadio Mané et Mazraoui qui touchent pas la bière me rappel un Frank Ribéry au paravent félicitations Muslim.
