THE 208-19 Premier League season finished with a bang last weekend with goals galore across the top-flight.
But as most players’ minds turn to next month’s World Cup, don’t forget there’s still the FA Cup to play for, as Chelsea take on Manchester United at Wembley.
Close to 90,000 supporters are already tipped to swarm on North London to take in the domestic season-ending showcase.
Amongst them will be the footballers’ wives and girlfriends, set to cheer on from the comfort of the Wembley boxes.
Ahead of Saturday evening’s kick-off, we take a look at the stunning other halves of Chelsea and United’s top stars…
CHELSEA
ALVARO MORATA – Alice Campello
WITH over one million followers on Instagram, Campello is about as famous as Morata in her own right.
The Italian beauty married the ex-Real striker in a star-studded ceremony in Venice last year – having got engaged during a Madrid magic show in December 2016.
Campello is a well known model and fashion designer – enjoying great success in the industry with her own brand Avril bags.
CESC FABREGAS – Daniella Semaan
SEMAAN is one of the Blues’ more recognisable Wags, turning heads with her sultry looks and enviable figure.
The Lebanese-born mum-of-five is 12 years Fabregas’ senior and the pair have been together for seven years following Semaan’s divorce from ex-husband Elie Taktouk.
Fab and Daniella have three children together – Lea, Capri and Leonardo – but met in the most incredible of circumstances.
They married this week at Cliveden House in Berkshire.
They first set eyes on each other in Japanese restaurant Nozomi in London’s super-wealthy Knightsbridge area.
Semaan revealed how she approached his table to ask for an autograph for her football-mad son, Joseph… the pair soon swapped numbers and the rest, as they say, is history.
CESAR AZPILICUETA – Adriana
STAR defender “Dave” not only excels on the pitch, but off it too – married to childhood sweetheart Adriana.
Azpi and his other half married in their hometown of Pamplona, Spain in June 2015 and even have a four-year-old child together, born in March 2014.
Adriana is considered one of football’s more private Wags, but the Spanish beauty is frequently spotted cheering on her Blues star husband at games.
WILLIAN – Vanessa Martins
BRAZIL star Willian has been married to stunning wife Vanessa Martins since 2011.
The pair welcomed twin daughters – Valentina and Manuella – to the world in 2012 and have been together for over a decade having met in 2007.
Six-years Willian’s senior, brainy beauty Vanessa is actually a lawyer by profession.
ANDREAS CHRISTENSEN – Katrine Friis
THE Danish defender has enjoyed a breakout season at Chelsea, becoming a mainstay in the Blues defence with some impressive performances.
But he’s performing just as well off the pitch too, as he cosies up to delightful Dane Katrine Friis.
She’s a fan of designer stores Harrods and Liberty, gets on the Tube and wows in a bikini – and she’ll be showing her support at Wembley this weekend.

MAN UNITED
CHRIS SMALLING – Sam Cooke
FROM Page 3 queen to vegan chef, Smalling’s stunning Wag Sam Cooke is something else.
The 32-year-old won Page 3 Idol back in 2006 and was even said to have the ‘Best Boobs in Britain’.
But now she’s completely changed tack, racking up over 30,000 Instagram followers for her vegan creations, including the taste-bud tantalising Jamaican curry with yam and sweet potato and southern fried jackfruit burgers.
The pair married last year in glamorous bash at Lake Como, Italy – with Cooke’s Barbados hen do littered with ex-Page 3 girls, including Rhian Sugden, India Reynolds, Holly Peers, Emily O’Hara and Rosie Jones.
PAUL POGBA – Maria Salaues
LEGGY beauty Maria Salaues has been spotted supporting Pogba an awful lot recently.
As well as attending recent games against Watford and West Brom, Salaues travelled with Pogba and his mum, Yeo, to Paris for the launch of his new adidas clothing range.
Model Salaues is expected once again expected to support her man for this weekend’s clash at Wembley.
DAVID DE GEA – Edurne Garcia
DE GEA cosies up to Spanish singer Edurne Garcia after a long day on the pitch.
The stunner – who also boasts TV appearances on her CV – rose to fame in late 2005 when she took part in the Spanish talent show, Operacion Triunfo.
Garcia then represented Spain in the Eurovision Song Contest 2015 with the song Amanecer.
The singer regularly shares pictures of herself and her footballer boyfriend on social media to her near one million followers.
In 2015, Edurne famously described Manchester as “uglier than the back of a fridge”.
But hopefully she’ll enjoy the sights of London a little more for Saturday’s showdown.
JUAN MATA – Evelina Kampf
NOT all footballers and their Wags enjoy the flashy, glitzy life…
Mata and Evelina Kampf are two who like the quieter lifestyle, with the pair often seen taking their dog for a stroll through the Manchester suburbs.
Frequently sighted enjoying a coffee and a stroll around Altrincham, Mata and Kampf are the definition of a relaxed partnership.
Kampf has also done her part for charity over the years too, dressing up to take part in a 5km Santa Run in December 2016 alongside fellow Wags Camille Sold (Morgan Schneiderlin) and Melanie Da Cruz (Anthony Martial).
PHIL JONES – Kaya Hall
BRAINY beauty Hall married Jones last year in a star-studded do in Manchester.
The United defender’s wife has a BA (Hons) business and management degree – with the pair actually meeting while she was studying at university.
At the time, Jones was on the books of Blackburn, but the pair have stuck together – with Hall following the England man to Manchester.
