Enzo Fernandez has appeared to confirm his reconciliation with the mother of his two children Valentina Cervantes with a sweet Instagram message posted on Wednesday.
The Chelsea star split from his childhood sweetheart in October last year in a move that reportedly blindsided his 24-year-old influencer partner.
In subsequent interviews with Argentinean media, Cervantes shared that she still loved the midfielder, and wished him nothing but the best.
But months after the news broke, reports suggested that the couple had reunited, with Cervantes and Fernandes allegedly spotted kissing and holding hands in London.
Cervantes had previously returned to Argentina with their children Olivia and Benjamin, but flew back to London for New Year together as a family.
Further suggestions that the pair had reconciled came when the influencer shared a picture of her travels in Rome last month which showed a table set with two coffee cups on a hotel room balcony.

This week, Fernandes fanned the flames of speculation even further with a thoughtful post in honour of Cervantes' birthday.
'Happy birthday mama (white heart emoji)!,' Fernandes captioned a picture of the couple on his Instagram Story, which showed the family posing at Stamford Bridge last season.
During the split, Fernandes was linked to Argentine rapper and model Nicki Nicole, but Nicole was quick to refute suggestions that the pair were an item.
Throughout the break-up, Cervantes has stressed that she was keen to 'respect' the player's decision to call time on their relationship, despite having come as a shock.
'I think it was a combination of things on his part,' Cervantes said in an interview last year of the end of her relationship. 'He made the decision and I respected it. We have two children together.
'To this day, we try to have a good relationship, we try to share, so that the kids can continue living together.
'If you ask me what happened, I have nothing specific to tell you.

'I just think that he decided to focus 100 percent on his career, on performing, on finding himself.
'He might not have been at his best as a player and tried to find it. Today, fortunately, things are going well for him. That's why I'm also happy.'
A bombshell report last month reported that Fernandes had in part reunited with the mother of his children after an Argentina team-mate had made a move on Cervantes during the split.
Neither Fernandes or Cervantes have yet commented publicly on the reports they have decided to get back together.
