SKN St. Pölten has officially announced the signing of 23-year-old Senegalese winger El Hadji Mané. The versatile attacker, who can operate effectively on both the right and left wings, joins the club from FK Auda in Latvia.
Last season, El Hadji Mané showcased his abilities in the Latvian Virslīga, where he played 31 matches, scored six goals, and provided four assists for FK Auda. His productivity on the field highlighted his value as an attacker capable of contributing both goals and creativity to his team.
Sporting director Christoph Freitag expressed his enthusiasm about the signing:
“After his contract in Latvia expired this winter, we were able to sign Mané, another highly interesting player for our attack. With his speed and ability to find solutions in one-on-one situations, he will definitely make us more flexible in attack. We will give him the necessary time to settle in St. Pölten and adapt to the club. We are very pleased that he has decided to join us.”
El Hadji Mané will reunite with his former FK Auda teammate, Wilguens Paugain, who joined St. Pölten in the last summer transfer window.
