Joao Felix’s glitzy girlfriend Magui Corceiro, who recently had to refute adultery allegations involving defender Pedro Porro, may move to England with either Arsenal or Manchester United.
Prior to his £113 million transfer to Atletico Madrid in 2019, Magui, a 20-year-old Portuguese actress, influencer, and model, started dating Felix while he was still playing for Benfica.
Felix was forced to focus on issues off the field after Magui was discovered at a club with Porro of Sporting, as he was trying to maintain consistency under Diego Simeone.
Magui, who did not fly to Qatar, was allegedly seen on camera kissing Porro, a former Manchester City prospect who is now a target for Tottenham.
According to her comments to Sports Mole, “If I wanted to be kissing someone, in an intimate moment, it would not be in Lust (a club), much less in the VIP area with that little balcony and in view of the entire nightclub.”
She added: “It’s getting out of control and it’s leaving me in a very boring position, and Joao too. I met Porro a few months ago unexpectedly at a group dinner and since then we have had a great time, we are very good friends, I love him, he is incredible and the people who know him know him very well.”
Porro argued that nobody had been unfaithful on the night out while acknowledging that he had a unique bond with the model.
Following those rumours, Felix was seen out having fun with Magui to dispel any rumours of a breakup before what may turn out to be a busy January.
According to reports, Atletico are prepared to loan the 23-year-old playmaker, with Arsenal and United vying for his services.
Felix said while playing for Portugal in Qatar: “The way you play here and at the club are different. When the conditions are favourable, things go better.”
With Arteta saying of his own plans: “We knew the importance of getting players early in the summer and that is the same we want to do in January.”
