Romance is in the air at Real Madrid as the blossoming relationship between Mexican striker Javier "Chicharito" Hernandez and former Los Blancos television reporter Lucia Villalon is heating up according to the couple's social media accounts.

Although neither has "officially" confirmed their relationship, the couple has been spotted together kissing and canoodling and posting pictures of each other together on Instagram.

Villalon uploaded a photo of support for Chicharito after he scored the game-winning goal in Real's 1-0 victory over rivals Atletico Madrid in the Champions League quarterfinals last week. She was even spotted outside of the team's facility when the bus arrived wearing a No. 14 jersey.

Yesterday afternoon, just days after Chicharito tallied another two goals against Celta, Villalon was at it again posting a selfie of her and Chicharito with the caption:

"Days like today make me smile before I go to sleep. And that's happiness."

This new budding relationship might be destined for disaster soon as Chicharito's time with the club is temporary, and could be coming to an end if Ancelotti and the Real Madrid brass don't opt to keep him permanently.
