Os Belenenses (1–2 loss).[2]

Mané played his first game in the Primeira Liga with the Lions on 5 October 2013, entering the pitch in the dying minutes of a 4–0 home win over Vitória de Setúbal.[3] He scored his first goal in the competition on 15 February of the following year, starting and netting the game's only against S.C. Olhanense also at the Estádio José Alvalade.[4][5]

Mané scored his first goal in the UEFA Champions League in only his third appearance in the competition, opening the score in an eventual 3–1 group stage home win over NK Maribor on 25 November 2014, where he started and played 65 minutes.[6] He played six games of the team's victorious run in the Taça de Portugal, scoring the winning goal against F.C. Vizela in the fifth round and the equaliser away to C.D. Nacional in the first leg of the semi-final.[7]

On 31 August 2016, Mané was loaned out to VfB Stuttgart until June 2018, with the German club having an option to buy.[8] In his first match he scored two goals in the opening four minutes to help to a 4–0 home win over SpVgg Greuther Fürth, which was a new record for debutants in the German professional leagues.[9]
