Recently, Chelsea star Ansel Fernandes has been in a slump, not only on the pitch, but also in his private life. A pair of young lovers, Valentina Cervantes, who have been together for years, have also announced their split. According to the Argentinian media, the sudden breakup was planned by Ansel Fernandes himself, who wanted a new "single life".

Valentina, an "internet sensation" with 1.4 million followers on social media, made the news public on Instagram. She said: "Ansel and I have come to the end of the road, but we are still close and we will support each other because these two little lives need my love. In my heart, Ansu is a great father and whatever happens between them, we should not create more strife."

Argentine journalists have further revealed the truth behind the split: that Ansel Fernandez himself desires to live independently. The 23-year-old young star, who met and started dating Valentina as a child, has formed a family despite not officially entering into marriage. Ansel Fernandes was promoted to the role of father at the age of 20 and celebrated his first birthday last month. But he still seems to be struggling within himself, wanting to get away from his current constraints and "not having enough fun".
