CHELSEA star Joao Felix has finally scored… by dating a stunning Colombian model.
The Portugal international joined the Blues last summer from Atletico Madrid in a £42million deal.
Joao Felix has started dating Valentina Rueda Velez
Felix had been single since 2023 before striking up the new romance
The Chelsea forward's mood will have been boosted after a tricky season
Felix, 25, penned a contract until 2031 and helped Enzo Maresca's side win the Conference League.
However, he managed just one Premier League goal - in his first game of the season against Wolves - before being shipped out on loan to AC Milan in January.
Felix had reportedly been single since ending his relationship with actress Margarida Corceiro in 2023.
But he was pictured together with reality TV star Valentina Rueda Velez while on holiday in Miami earlier this month.
Model Valentina appeared in the Netflix dating show Too Hot To Handle last year.
The glamorous brunette, 24, posted videos online of herself with the footballer in the Florida hotspot before taking them down.
Felix struggled to rediscover his best form at the San Siro.
And he was left out of Chelsea's squad that travelled to the Club World Cup in America - plus had his No14 shirt given to new signing Dario Essugo.
Felix has won 45 Portugal caps, scoring nine goals.
The attacker twice helped his country win the Nations League, in 2019 and again this year.
He had a spell on loan to Chelsea from Atletico in early 2023 that yielded four goals from 20 games - plus a red card on debut.
Born at Viseu in central Portugal, he began his senior career with Benfica - winning the Primeira Liga with the Lisbon giants in 2019.
Felix joined Atletico for £112m and helped them lift the LaLiga crown in 2021, and also had a loan spell with Barcelona in 2023-24.
