THIS is the stunning girlfriend of Premier League new boy Goncalo Guedes.
Valencia’s manager Gennaro Gattuso confirmed late on Saturday the Portuguese international was on his way to the UK after a “big money” offer he admitted the LaLiga side couldn’t refuse.

Hours later it emerged Wolves had agreed a deal worth up to £35million for the winger.
Beautiful Madalena de Moura Neves, who has a degree in human resource management but has gone on to study nutrition, is expected to make the move to Britain with him.
The pair have been inseparable since Guedes’ Benfica days and 26-year-old Madalena, who also hails from Portugal, lived with her boyfriend in the French capital when he played briefly for Paris Saint-Germain before following him to Valencia.
They rarely flaunt their relationship on social media, although the 25-year-old footballer couldn’t resist sharing a loved-up snap of him with his partner on a recent holiday to the Caribbean.
At the end of last season Guedes whisked Madalena off to Saona Island, a 43 square mile tropical island which lies off the southeastern tip of the Dominican Republic known for its mangroves and coral reefs. They also spent time in Dominican Republic tourist resort Punta Cana.
Last year they holidayed together on the Greek island of Mykonos.
Guedes, who comes from the small town of Benavente in Portugal’s Santarem District, was cited in a recent Spanish-language publication as “proof that footballers can also be faithful and find true love.”
Animal-lover Madalena, who is not shy about showing off her body to her fans, has two dogs and in a post last year with her pets, confessed: “I like dogs more than people. Come on, I’m not the only person to think like that” followed by laughter emojis.”
The globetrotter fell in love with Isla Contoy, a small island in the northeast of Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula, last year and described it in a trip she promoted online by saying: “One of the most beautiful places in the world.”
The Portuguese beauty, who has more than 13,000 Instagram followers, is currently thought to be enjoying downtime in her homeland with friends and family.
Wolves, beaten 2-1 by Leeds at Elland Road on Saturday on the opening weekend of the Premier League season, were the only English team thought to be interested in signing Guedes.
Boss Bruno Lage was left in need of a new attacking option after Raul Jimenez picked up a pre-season injury and Fabio Silva was loaned to Belgian side Anderlecht.
Guedes began his career at Benfica, making his professional debut for the reserves in April 2014 and the first team six months later.
He transferred to PSG in January 2017 but played only 13 matches for the French side before being loaned to Valencia in September that year.
He joined the LaLiga side on a permanent basis in August 2018 for £34m and has gone on to score 23 goals in 113 appearances after five goals during his loan spell.
Guedes has earned 32 caps for Portugal and scored seven goals – including the winner in the 2019 Uefa Nations League final.
