Chelsea star Enzo Fernandez will reportedly be at the centre of an on-screen row when his long-term partner, Valentina Cervantes, goes head-to-head with infamous former WAG Wanda Nara on Argentinian television.
Nara, 38, who hosts MasterChef Celebrity in the South American country, is set to address rumours she sent a flirty message to footballer Fernandez directly to Cervantes’s face, according to Argentinian outlet Infobae.
The former wife of Mauro Icardi allegedly sent a message to Fernandez which read: ‘I just saw you in the neighborhood, write to me if you want.’ That has been reported by journalist Santiago Sposato.
Fernandez showed the message to Cervantes, 25, knowing she would go on the show hosted by Nara, and Magazine Guys claims it has led to tension, with his girlfriend feeling ‘uncomfortable’ every time she crosses paths with Nara.
However, Thursday’s report suggests Nara emphatically shuts down the rumours on the upcoming TV show, labelling them ‘nonsense’.
‘And I’ll take this opportunity to clarify the nonsense they’re saying about me and your husband; it’s false,’ the host is reported to have said.

In response, Cervantes nodded and downplayed the drama, before Nara offered the WAG some sage advice on life in the spotlight.
‘Made-up stories. Welcome to fame. That’s how it is.’
Previously, Cervantes publicly stated she had no issue with the Masterchef host.
She said: ‘They’re always going to stir that up, but what do I know? It’s mostly people who create it, because I have no problem with her. She’s never done anything to me.’
Cervantes also claims she had no knowledge of any message sent to her partner.
‘No, not that I know of, I haven’t seen any message ,’ she said, adding that Fernandez never brought anything of that nature up in conversation and that she learnt of the alleged exchange after being shown clips circulating on social media through family.
‘No, no, Enzo never spoke to me about anything. No, he never mentioned any of that to me.’
Nara has a chequered history with this sort of thing, having endured a tumultuous marriage with Icardi which finally ended for good in March.
Icardi and Nara married in 2014 and endured multiple break-ups and reconciliations before agreeing to part ways, with Icardi accusing her of infidelity.
He says Nara cheated on him with Argentinian singer L-Gante and former team-mates Federico Fazio and Keita Balde – the latter has even admitted to having the affair.
Nara has denied knowing Fazio, has not addressed the Balde situation, and is open about her former relationship with L-Gante, which came amid an informal split from Icardi.
