Who is Aisha Tamba?

Pulse Sports reported that Mane vowed to marry Tamba from the day they started dating – during his Liverpool career.

The outlet also stated that her education would be “taken care of” – with the Senegalese star also “taking care of her family.”

The same outlet exclusively reported that Tamba is not on social media and lives a private life.

Mane, 31, had previously spoken about his ideal woman, revealing that his wife would not appear on any form of social media.

Despite being one of the most recognizable faces in football, Mane somehow managed to keep his relationship with Tamba a secret from the public eye until their wedding this year.

However, in 2022, he had spoken out about the kind of person he would marry.

“I’ve seen a lot of girls asking why I’m not married, but I’m sorry you might be wasting your time. The woman I marry will not be on social networks,” Mane said Stand.

‘I want to marry a woman who respects God and prays well. Everyone has their own way of making their choice of love,” Mane added.

Who does Sadio Mane play for?

Mane currently plays for Al-Nassr, having joined the Saudi side at the start of the season following a disastrous spell at Bayern Munich.

The forward moved to Bayern for £35 million last year but struggled to establish himself in Germany, scoring just 12 goals for the club, while also having a high-profile feud with teammate Leroy Sane.

Prior to his poor spell at Munich, the Senegalese star spent six years at Liverpool.

He won six major trophies during six years on Merseyside, claiming every major club honour, and scored a total of 120 goals in 269 appearances for the club.

In his final season at Liverpool, Mane scored 23 goals in 51 games in all competitions during a campaign that also saw his country win the Africa Cup of Nations.

He won his first trophy in 2019 with the Champions League, followed a season later by the Premier League.

He completed his England trophy haul by winning the League Cup and FA Cup this year, while also being part of the squad that won the 2019 UEFA Super Cup and the 2019 FIFA Club World Cup.
