Liverpool Star Sadio Mane Denies Wedding Rumours in Social Media Post

Liverpool forward Sadio Mane has denied rumours he is set to marry following reports he would wed a Tunisian woman in the new year.

Connor Dunn of the Liverpool Echo referred to a report initially made by Tunisia's Radio Mosaique FM, which was then picked up by other outlets in Africa.

It was claimed Mane would wed a Tunisian woman on January 5 and had requested to rent out the 28,000-seat Stade Olympique de Sousse.

But the alleged wedding was denied by Mane with a post on his official Facebook account on Thursday (in French):

A translation of Mane's Facebook post read:

"Dear all, it was with amazement and dismay that I learned a supposed gala game that I should organize in Sousse, Tunisia, on the occasion of my wedding.
