ENZO Fernandez’s former fiancee Valentina Cervantes has revealed she will jet to London with their two children to see in the New Year together with her ex.
The Blues midfielder stunned everyone – including the pretty brunette – by telling her earlier this year he wanted to end their six-year relationship.

The 24-year-old beauty moved back to their native Argentina with Olivia, four, and Benjamin, one, after confirming the split at the end of October.
But on Friday she confirmed they would be jetting to the UK in the coming hours for a family reunion.
Former law student Valentina, Enzo’s childhood sweetheart, also used an interview to reveal she had asked the footballer about rumours he was dating Argentinian rapper Nicki Nicole and had been assured the reports were untrue.
The stunning influencer told Argentine newspaper La Nacion: “Enzo asked me to go to London for Christmas,
“But I told him I preferred to spend it here in Argentina because the kids have more cousins and it makes the moment of opening gifts and everything else more special.
“But for the 31st, we’ll travel there and spend it together.”
She joked: “I’m not going to go to Big Ben with a cider alone. We talked about it, and he has no problem with it, and neither do I, in that I know how to separate things.
“We are going to do everything possible to make the children happy.

“I’m going to stay a few days because I have to finish some things there that I left behind, then I’ll come back here and they’ll stay with him a bit longer.”
Valentina also admitted she and Enzo lived and slept together for another 10 days after he left her shell-shocked by telling her “from one day to the next” he didn’t want to be with her anymore.
Asked whether they made love, she added: “Yes, some days, as a goodbye.”
Addressing the split, Valentina continued: “I think it was a combination of things on his part. 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.”

After their split rumours began circulating Fernandez was dating 24-year-old Nicole, whose real name is Nicole Cucco and was born and raised in Lionel Messi’s home city of Rosario.
But Valentina said: “I asked him. Obviously, I don’t get involved in those things and I would respect the woman he has from now on because it’s his life.
“But I wanted to know because I think as the mother of the children I have to know and he told me they weren’t together.
“Olivia listens to Nicki Nicole’s songs, I was thrilled – I think they met once. Not alone, in a group.”
She added: “We’ve talked about the fact that if either of us starts a new relationship in the future, we will inform each other out of respect and because we share two children together.”
Valentina announced the end of their relationship at the end of October by writing on Instagram: “With Enzo, today we decided to put space between us.
Chelsea ratings vs Everton as Enzo continues to shine but Jackson costs Blues chance to win
CHELSEA extended their unbeaten run to nine Premier League games with a performance that will quickly be forgotten.
Chances on goal were few and far between but Nicolas Jackson had two opportunities to put the Blues ahead in the first half.
SunSport’s Kealan Hughes provides his ratings of the Chelsea squad…
Robert Sanchez – 7
Smart stop down to his right to deny Orel Mangala shortly before the break.
Pulled off an even better save when Jack Harrison looked certain to score in the second half.
Axel Disasi – 6
Dealt with the tricky Iliman Ndiaye reasonably well. Lacked an attacking threat which hindered Blues going forward.
Tosin Adarabioyo – 8
Made a brilliant block 15 minutes from time to stop Ndiaye finding the net with Sanchez beaten.
He also looked assured on the ball and comfortable doing the nitty-gritty every time he plays. Deserves more game time.
Levi Colwill – 7
An accomplished display as he limited Everton’s chances on goal, worked well with Adarabioyo.
Malo Gusto – 5
Was caught out a few times by Harrison, who should have scored when he got in behind the left-back.
Almost opened the scoring in the first half but Pickford charged down his shot well.
Moises Caicedo – 7
Protected the defence well and cut out a lot of loose balls to prevent Everton getting near the Chelsea box.
Enzo Fernandez – 8
Perhaps Chelsea’s best player. Saw a lot of the ball and kept possession nicely.
Had one shooting opportunity he aimed straight at the keeper.
Cole Palmer – 5
Squared well for Jackson’s chance. Failed to influence the match in his usual manner, which is a credit to the Everton defence.
Pedro Neto – 5
Plenty of effort and endeavour but not really his day. Every time he did threaten he was quickly fouled.
Jadon Sancho – 5
Some nice touches and passes but rarely posed a threat.
Nicolas Jackson – 4
Spurned a big chance first half as Pickford was equal to a close range effort.
He then missed an even easier opportunity minutes later as he directed his header onto the post with the goal gaping.
Subs
Christopher Nkunku (for Jackson, 76mins) – 5
Noni Madueke (for Neto, 76mins) – 5
“But we will always be family and we will support each other in everything because there are two children in the middle who need a lot of our love for them.
“I know the person and the excellent father that Enzo is, and the heart he has and with that, I’m satisfied.
“Don’t try to create wars where there are none.”
Fernandez, who cost Chelsea £106million, struggled to live up to his hefty price tag following his arrival at the club in January last year from Benfica.

He endured a difficult first full campaign at Chelsea under Mauricio Pochettino, struggling with a hernia issue which required surgery and meant he missed 10 games.
But his performances this season have improved following a spell on the bench.
Addressing the difficulties of his first 18 months at Chelsea in a recent interview, the 23-year-old said: “When I arrived it was very difficult, the first year and a half here, change of coaches, the club wasn’t doing well, personal injuries.
“I was not satisfied with what I had been showing, then I got injured, many adverse things happened.
“I tried to move forward but today I feel very good, as does the team and we hope to continue on this path.”
