Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr team-mate Sadio Mane marries longtime partner Aisha Tamba ahead of Senegal's AFCON opener

The wedding ceremony took place on Sunday in Keur Massar, the commune located in the Senegalese capital of Dakar, with images of Mane and his new bride subsequently spreading on social media. Aisha, who grew up in the Casamanca area of Senegal, had been 'intended' for Mane since her teenage years, with the former Liverpool winger taking care of her bills when she was in school - according to Pulse Sports.

Official photos from the wedding were released on Instagram by photography company magvision_evens_officiel, with the couple seen posing in front of a flower-covered background with 'Mrs Mane' written on the wall. It has been reported that the ceremony was attended by friends, family and a number of Mane's team-mates in the Senegal national team.

Mane returned to Senegal at the start of the month to join his nation's training camp in preparation for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations tournament, which kicks off on Saturday. The 31-year-old Al-Nassr star also inaugurated a stadium he built in his hometown of Bambali before linking up with the Senegal squad.

Mane, who joined Al-Nassr from Bayern Munich in the summer of 2023, has scored eight goals in 18 games for Al-Nassr so far this season, while striking up a strong partnership with Ronaldo in the final third. Senegal will hope he can translate that form to the 2023 AFCON, with Aliou Cisse's team set to open their Group C campaign against Gambia on Monday.
