'We are all human beings and maybe that affected him a little bit, unfortunately.'
Mane, unlike Salah, chose to leave Liverpool this summer with the Senegal international wanting a new challenge at Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich.
Liverpool brought in Darwin Nunez as his replacement for £85m from Benfica with the Uruguay international getting off to the perfect startOn Nunez, Van Djik added: “For him it’s the same as me. The transfer fee is not something you should think about. He just has to keep his head down, work hard and be an important player.
“I don’t speak Spanish, so I don’t speak with him yet! That’s quite difficult at the moment but we have plenty of experienced players who speak to him at any chance that’s possible. He learns a lot in training and sees how we want to play, how we defend and attack. “He just has to focus on himself and the team. He has to improve, get settled in as quickly as possible and the way to do that is to learn in training.
“He shouldn’t look at what others have to say about his performances. That’s the key to success. If you perform then you’ll be fine. Don’t get distracted.”
