Liverpool star Mane reveals who is his Premier League's best player and it is not Van Dijk

Sadio Mane has already made his pick for the Premier League Player of the Season with few games left to play.

The 27-year-old could have picked the runners-up of the 2019 Ballon d'Or Virgil van Dijk but Mane opted for an outfield player.

The Liverpool striker is banking on the award to be given to his teammate and captain Jordan Henderson.

The Senegalese international believes the England midfielder deserves the accolade because of his contributions to the Reds in the 2019-20 Premier League season.

"I would go for Henderson. He's been a big part of our success this year, both defensively and in attack."

"He was really good this year. A really good leader and a great captain."

Henderson lifted the UEFA Super Cup before the start of the season and helped the Reds continue their unbeaten streak in the league until the game against Watford at Vicarage Road.

With nine games left to play, Liverpool need just three wins to ensure they lift the league title for the first time in more than 30 years.

The 29-year-old Englishman has been part and parcel of Jurgen Klopp's record-breaking side in the English topflight division.

The Premier League season has currently been suspended due to the outbreak of the global pandemic.
