18-year-old Aisha Tamba, who is the new wife of Sadio Mane received a grand welcome as she returned to her school a day after tying the knot with the Senegalese footballer.

The former Liverpool striker, who now plays for Saudi Pro League side Al-Nassr, married Tamba in an Islamic ceremony on January 7 in Keur Massar, a suburb in the capital city of Dakar.

The marriage took place in Aisha's home and was attended by family and close friends.

Her father Amadou Tamba revealed afterwards that his daughter is 18 and that Mane, 31, first set eyes on her 'more than two years ago' when she went to visit his family with her mother.
