Amanda 'Mandinha' Gama, wife of Argentina's star goalkeeper Emiliano 'Dibu' Martínez, maintains a private life away from the soccer pitch. Born in England to Portuguese and Brazilian parents, Gama established her own career running a children's interior design business named Mi Sueños Kids. The business, which started with London stores, now has an online presence.
The couple's relationship began in 2013 when they met in London while Martínez was playing for Arsenal. They married in May 2017 and later welcomed their son, Santi, followed by their daughter, Ava, in 2021. A poignant moment for Martínez was meeting newborn Ava via video call during the 2021 Copa América due to tournament protocols.
Martínez is currently preparing for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, where Argentina is scheduled to play Algeria on June 16, Austria on June 22, and Jordan on June 27. It is anticipated that Mandinha will be in attendance to support her husband during the tournament.
