Controversy arises surrounding the age difference between Sadio Mane and his newly wedded wife

Shortly after the enchanting union of Senegalese footballer Sadio Mane and his ‘long-time’ girlfriend Aisha Tamba, online discussions erupted regarding the age gap within the newly married couple.

Internet sources reveal that Mane and Aisha commenced their relationship two years ago when the latter was only 16. Mane chose to tie the knot this week as she turned 18, now considered mature.

At 31, Mane stands 13 years older than his bride, prompting some football enthusiasts to ponder the age disparity. Despite the private nature of Mane’s love life, which has kept it away from the public eye, fans expressed both concerns about the age gap and congratulatory messages.

The newlywed Sadio Mane, at the age of 31, will lead Senegal’s Teranga Lions in AFCON 2023, aiming to defend their title against teams such as Cameroon, Guinea, and Gambia.
