World Cup winner Romario has scored off the pitch with the Brazilian legend reportedly in a relationship with a student 31 years his junior.
The 53-year-old - who is currently working as a member of the Brazilian senate - is understood to be dating 22-year-old Ana Karoline Nazario.
Nazario - who is believed to have been dating Romario since May - uploaded a picture of the pair to her 21,000 Instagram followers.
Captioning the snap, she said: "Love, nothing in this life happens by chance, there is always a motive, a reason why.
"People arrive in our lives for some reason and to show us something, and you showed me how to love.
“Only I know what I feel for you! A mixture of love, pride and desire!”
The brunette beauty is reportedly a student of business from the city of Florianopolis in the southern Brazilian state of Santa Catarina.
Romario - who claims to have scored over 1,000 goals in his career - won trophies with PSV and Barcelona in Europe, and was named as the Fifa World Player of the Year in 1994 after helping Brazil win the World Cup.
The politician once boasted about his womanising ways, where he revealed he managed to sleep with three different woman in the same day.
