Manchester United full-back Antonio Valencia has moved to clarify his 'civil status is single' after being accused of a secret hotel liaison with a nurse he met on Instagram.
Valencia, 31, who has regularly taken to social media to declare his love for long-term partner Zoila Meneses, previously referred to as his wife, allegedly flew 23-year-old Norwegian Sophie Vagsaeter to England for the Manchester Derby on September 10.
He allegedly arranged for her to attend the game and put her up in a hotel, after they were said to have exchanged raunchy messages for weeks prior to their meeting, after she grabbed Valencia's attention on the social media site.
