Mamelodi Sundowns star Arthur Sales has left the singles world after officially tying the knot with his long-time partner, Eduarda, in a beautiful private ceremony, just days ahead of the highly anticipated 2025 FIFA Club World Cup in the United States of America.

The Brazilian star joined the Premier Soccer League giants last summer after leaving Belgian club Lommel SK and has gone on to become one of the important players for the club this season.

The 22-year-old was part of the squad that won the 2024-25 Betway Premiership, scoring eight goals and providing the same number of assists. He was unable to guide the Pretoria giants to their second CAF Champions League title after losing to Pyramids FC in the final, but it was still a good season for the Brazilian.

Sales tie the knot with long-time girlfriend

Congratulations were in order when Sales decided to seal the deal with his long-time girlfriend, Eduarda, in Pretoria before travelling with the Sundowns squad to the United States.

The South American couple had the ceremony at what appeared to be the Brazilian Embassy in Pretoria and were joined by Sundowns teammate Lucas Ribeiro Costa, with their young daughter also present at the event.

Eduarda took to Instagram to share the great news about their marriage, posting pictures and a video from the event, accompanied by a lovely caption.

"Married at last... 💍," she said.
"I chose you 3 years ago, and I still choose you every day. I want to share my whole life with you! I love you without explanation, my husband."

The post generated several reactions from fans, fellow footballers, and followers on social media, with most comments being congratulatory.
