Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernández and his longtime partner Valentina Cervantes are reportedly separating as the Argentine player navigates changes in his personal life.
Fernández has faced challenges in maintaining his on-field performance, and the reason behind this may be clearer now.
Valentina shared the news of their separation in an emotional social media post, acknowledging the difficulties of this transition, according to the ‘Daily Mail‘.
The couple, who share two children, are committed to an amicable split, prioritizing their family’s well-being.
Valentina posted on Instagram via ‘Goal‘, “Enzo and I have decided to take some distance from each other today. But we will always be family, and we will support each other in everything… Because there are two children involved who need a lot of love from us. I know the person Enzo is and what an excellent father he is, as well as the heart he has. And that is enough for me. Please don’t try to create conflicts where there are none.”
Adding to his off-the-field challenges, Fernández was recently handed a driving ban, which appears to be affecting his form.
Chelsea’s manager, Enzo Maresca, has shown limited confidence in the midfielder, benching him for Chelsea’s last two Premier League matches.
Eager to return to form, Fernández hopes to help Chelsea bounce back after their Carabao Cup loss to Newcastle on Wednesday.
Chelsea faces Manchester United on Sunday, where they’ll need strong performances to contend with a reenergized Red Devils squad under interim coach Ruud van Nistelrooy.
