Fans convinced romantic Enzo Fernandez dedicated Chelsea goal to ‘new rapper girlfriend’ by referencing her song
CHELSEA star Enzo Fernandez extended his impressive goalscoring form against Aston Villa.
Fernandez, 23, helped the Blues beat Villa 3-0 on Sunday at Stamford Bridge as he netted the second goal.
The midfielder has now scored or assisted in four consecutive matches for the West Londoners across all competitions.
The Argentina international also appears to have adopted a new signature celebration he debuted during the 2-1 win at Leicester two weeks ago.
Fernandez has been striking a phonecall pose, which some fans believe has a special meaning.
According to The Mail, supporters claim the ex-Benfica star is dedicating his goals to a new love interest.
And that is Argentinean rapper Nicki Nicole, who released a popular song last year called Llamame (Call Me).
Neither Nicole nor Fernandez have commented or confirmed the reports linking them together.
According to La Nacion, however, the pair are believed to have met at the end of October at Buenos Aires nightclub Moby Dick.
They were filmed talking in the nightclub on TikTok, but after the video went viral the singer shared a comment stating she had attended the party with “the person [she is] currently dating”.
Fernandez separated from childhood sweetheart Valentina Cervantes, with whom he shares two children, Olivia and Benjamin, at the end of October.
Reports suggest the Chelsea star and Nicole linked up after he broke up with Cervantes.
The 24-year-old artist has a staggering 22.6million followers on Instagram and is thought to have previously dated Formula One prospect Franco Colapinto.
Fernandez will have to put his phone away and concentrate on football this week, with the thrid-placed Blues facing away trips to Southampton and Spurs.
