Sadio Mane has reportedly married his longtime girlfriend, Aisha Tamba, after paying for her school bills. The ceremony took place in Keur Massar, a district in Senegal’s capital city, Dakar, just a week shy of the Africa Cup of Nations’ commencement.
The veteran will be representing Senegal at the Africa Cup of Nations in the coming tournament. And just before, he has achieved a massive personal milestone. The exact length of the relationship remains unknown, but has been brought to light after photos have been uploaded to Instagram.
Sadio Mane marries long-time girlfriend Aisha Tamba
In the past, Sadio Mane addressed the real reason why he wasn’t married in spite of being 30 years old: “I’ve seen a lot of girls asking me why I am not married, but sorry you might be wasting your time. The woman I marry will not be on social networks. I want to marry a woman who respects God and prays well. Everyone has their own way of making their choice of love.”
Before marrying her, Mane financed his girlfriend’s education in a private university at Mbao. Tamba intends to continue her studies after getting married, while Mane will see out the rest of his contract with Al Nassr.
Tamba shares the Islamic faith that Mane strongly follows and shares his desire for privacy. His relationship was completely unknown during his prolific six-year spell at Liverpool, as well as his year at Bayern Munich.
