Aisha: Sadio Mane's bride is 18 – Father-in-law confirms, praises football superstar

Amadou Tamba, a contractor, has confirmed his daughter Aisha Tamba indeed married football star Sadio Mane, aged 18.
The Islamic marriage rites between Sadio and Aisha took place in the bride's home at Keur Massar, Dakar, Senegal, on Sunday, January 7, 2024, with their respective family and friends in attendance.
According to Aisha's father, the pair met "more than two years ago". 16-year-old Aisha was in the company of her mother visiting family, then.
Amadou said upon Sadio taking interest in Aisha, his family promptly came to see him formally.
"He probably saw something special in her and his parents appreciated her as well. They came to see me. We discussed as per the tradition, agreed on everything and waited for this day to happen," he said.
He stressed, the pair did not proceed to dating even though their families knew about their possible future together.
"They were not dating because Aisha was still young," Amadou explained.
The ex-Liverpool star, apparently, made the acquaintance of his father-in-law in 2013, when he started to work on some construction projects for the Mane household. During this period, Amadou became fond of Sadio for her piety, humility and maturity.
He narrated: "I knew that Sadio and all his family are very good and humble people. Sadio is just the reflection of his family. However, as a father I also needed to know more about him, his education, his faith in God, humility. And I came to know much more that he is a good person.
"Sadio and I talk much about the projects, but we also talk about life in general and he taught me a lot, although he is still young. He knows a lot about life, and I learnt much from him. So, that's why I didn't hesitate to accept his request to marry Aisha," he lauded further.
