Former Liverpool and Bayern Munich star Sadio Mane has officially said goodbye to the bachelor's club.
Two-time African Footballer of the Year Sadio Mane is in the news again - but this time not for philanthropic work but for romantic matters.
The former Liverpool forward is well-known to have kept his personal life away from public glare, but there was nothing he could do when news of his marriage to Aisha Tamba made the rounds on social media.

Mane and his heartthrob Aisha tied the knot in a fancy wedding ceremony held in Keur Massar, Dakar, Senegal.
Here are three reasons why Sadio Mane decided to walk Aisha down the aisle;
1. Aisha has been Mane’s longtime choice

Pulse Sports exclusively gathered that Mane has known Aisha since her teenage years, even though the exact time the couple started dating remains unknown.
The Al-Nassr forward had made his intentions clear from the very beginning that he wanted to marry Aisha.
Both Mane and Aisha have come a long way since their childhood days and it was only befitting that their love story culminated the way it did - in a lovely union.
2. Mane’s long-term investment
Like the aforementioned point, Mane has known Aisha for long and he was clear about his intention for her.

Mane has also been responsible for paying Aisha’s bills while she was a student at Cabis School in Grand Mbao Baobab, Senegal.
Pulse Sports gathered that Mane’s beautiful bride Aisha, although the daughter of an architect, is from a humble and modest background in West African country Senegal.
Now 31 years of age, Sadio Mane decided to seal his love affair with his long-term partner, as he leads Senegal to defend their title at the African Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast.
3. Similar values

A year and about six months later, Mane has officially inaugurated the newly-built stadium for the village, fulfilling a pledge he made.
Mane although one of the biggest names in football in the African continent has continued to keep a low profile and maintain a frugal lifestyle.
Interestingly, Aisha has also towed the same line as she is not active on any social media platform.
Both Aisha and Mane also have the same religious faith - Islam.
Aisha and Mane have found love and we can only wish that they find fulfilment and lasting happiness in their union.
