Manchester United striker Mame Biram Diouf sparked a man hunt in Norway last week.
The Observer says Diouf arrived in Norway on Thursday ahead of his wedding to Mary Orten in Molde on Saturday, ending one of the summer's more unusual missing person hunts.
On Wednesday the bride-to-be wrote on Twitter: "Supposed to be getting married in three days ... and the groom has disappeared off the face of the earth."
Contacted by Dagbladet, the 20-year-old said : "I think there's some foul play going on. He hasn't answered my calls in five days. I've heard other people have spoken to him, so I don't think it's as scary as it sounds."
She blamed the disappearance on the best man, the Molde midfielder Pape Paté Diouf.
"That would be typical of them," she said.
The panic, however, ended on Thursday when Diouf, who spent last season on loan at Blackburn, finally got in touch with his girlfriend of four years, though Orten was banned from revealing the reason behind his disappearance.
