It was a historic moment for Argentina when they lifted the 2022 FIFA World Cup. La Albiceleste ended their 36-year wait, adding the third prestigious trophy to their collection after triumphs in 1978 and 1986. While it was the collective efforts of the whole team including the players and coaching staff, one name that grabbed eyeballs was Enzo Fernandez.

The midfielder’s inaugural international tournament with his beloved country proved to be favorable. Even today, as he continues to make strides in the soccer world, not many are acquainted with his personal life, particularly his love life. We introduce you to Fernandez’s beloved girlfriend, Valentina Cervantes, and explore whether the two share any children together.

Who is Enzo Fernandez’s partner Valentina Cervantes?

Valentina Cervantes was born in Buenos Aires on February 4, 2000. She is a year older than Enzo Fernandez, who, on the other hand, was born on January 17, 2001, in San Martín, Argentina. While the details regarding her parents or siblings are not public, she is said to be brought up in a middle-class family background. After completing her education at a reputed school in Argentina, Cervantes pursued higher education to become a teacher. However, she had to drop her studies to become a homemaker and support Fernandez’s career. The extensive traveling required around the world made it difficult for her to continue her education simultaneously.

Regardless, life is much better than being a teacher for the 25-year-old as she is now a social media influencer and model. She has over 1.1 million followers on Instagram as of June 2024, where she is also friends with Lionel Messi’s beloved wife, Antonela Roccuzzo. Aside from sharing glimpses of spending quality time with her family, Valentina regularly posts about her work, promoting several brands on the Meta-owned platform. Majorly, she endorses ‘Aloyoga,’ a brand that Messi’s significant other also promotes on Instagram. While the basic details about Cervantes are known, let’s explore how her relationship began with Fernandez and whether they share any children.

How many children does Enzo Fernandez have with Valentina Cervantes?

Enzo Fernandez and Valentina Cervantes crossed paths with each other in their teenage days when they were 17 and 18 respectively. At that time, the midfielder was playing for River Plate. It has been over six years the two have been together and a lot has happened in their lives since then. Both share two kids with each other. Interestingly, Cervantes made Fernandez a dad just at 19, as the couple welcomed their firstborn daughter Olivia around May 2020.

Two years later, Fernandez made a breakthrough in Europe by signing for Benfica, and a year later for Chelsea, becoming the most expensive transfer in Premier League history. Notably, Valentina kept her second pregnancy a secret and directly announced the birth of her second child, son Benjamín, who was allegedly born 8 months ago. Additionally, aside from being a family of four, they also pet a brown-colored Poddle dog and live happily in London.
