    And that has a whole host of Premier League clubs, including Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea who are looking to bring the Austrian international in on a free transfer next summer.
    Should Alaba make the move, he will uprooting his family including his stunning missus Shalimar Heppner and their son for a new challenge.
    They’ll both likely miss her dad’s cooking, who is a top chef who has been called the ‘German Gordon Ramsay’.
    But Shalimar, 26, would definitely be a welcome addition to our shores.

    LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT
    She met Alaba in 2017, and the pair immediately hit it off.
    However, they didn’t go public with their romance until 2018, when they arrived at the Oktoberfest together in Bavaria.
    Shalimar is a part-time model, but also works as a PR manager.
    And she’s picked up quite the buzz on Instagram – with almost 30,000 followers.

    However, she is not as well-known as her dad.

    YES CHEF
    Frank Heppner, Shalimar’s father, has worked almost exclusively with luxury hotel restaurants around the world.
    From designing menus at Hilton International in Seoul-Korea and the Peninsula Hotels in the Philippines and in Hong Kong to being head chef at Mark’s in Munich, Heppner’s cooking is renowned in his homeland.
    Skilled at grilled meats and fish, he’s a mean-hand at a BBQ and has been compared to our very own chef Ramsay.
    His focus is on Euro-Asian cuisine, so we want in!
    NEW ADDITION
    In 2019, Shalimar and Alaba welcomed their first child together.
    The pair have never revealed the boy’s name, and the left-back has kept the baby’s identity private, aside from an image of him holding the baby and kissing his feet.

    Man City star Bernardo Silva’s Wag Ines is a stunning model who Netflix and chilled with the midfielder during lockdown

    LOCKDOWN was kind to Manchester City star Bernardo Silva.
    As the country gears up towards ANOTHER lockdown this week (thankfully the football isn’t affected), Silva, 26, will have fond memories of the first.

    Bernardo Silva’s incredible Wag is Ines Degener Tomaz

    The pair cemented their romance during lockdown back in April

    Stunning Tomaz is a models and loves showing off her bikini body on Instagram

    It was when he cemented his romance with stunning model Ines Degener Tomaz, 22.
    The pair snuggled down together in Portugal, when the coronavirus pandemic initially changed our way of living, in a huge countryside home – just an hour away from the capital.
    There, they ‘Netflix and chilled’ with pals until restrictions were lifted.
    So who is the beauty that’s stole Bernardo’s heart?

    LISBON LIONESS
    Gorgeous Tomaz is believed to be from Lisbon, where Silva was also born and raised.
    Unsurprisingly, with her natural good looks she’s a model and regularly shows off her amazing body in several bikini shots on Instagram.
    The confident blonde has also amassed around 54,000 followers on the social media network, who follow her on her travels.
    In terms of work, she’s a fan of promoting green brands that promote respect and care for the environment.

    Most recently, Silva and Tomaz enjoyed a romantic break away in Formentera, one of the Balearic Islands of Spain.

    The 22-year-old has over 54,000 followers on Instagram

    Silva took Tomaz to Formentera for a needed break and hired a yacht

    The loved-up couple take to surfing in the sea

    Tomaz always thinks of the environment and prefers to represent green brands
    They lived the high-life, hiring a yacht during their lavish holiday as their love blossomed.
    But it was earlier this year when things really started hotting up.
    NETFLIX AND CHILL
    Back in April, Silva took to Instagram to share how he was spending his time in quarantine.
    He shared a snap sat next to Tomaz with a group of pals telling his fans what he had been doing.
    “Hey guys, it’s been over a month that we’re all locked down in our homes so I have decided to show you a little bit of what our quarantine looks like,” he wrote.
    “This is the group of friends with whom I’m spending my quarantine since the beginning.

    Tomaz shows off the charms that attracted Silva

    Tomaz loves to live life in the fast lane

    “I’ve been watching Netflix, plenty of sports during the day, playing the piano and learning how to cook better.
    “It is a good opportunity. My friends are very good cooks, so they have been teaching me a lot of things. It is time to try and enjoy ourselves at home and that is what I have been trying to do.”
    With company like Tomaz, it’s no doubt he did.

    Meet Aston Villa hotshot Ollie Watkins’ bikini-loving Wag Ellie, who is a twin and sells designer clothes on app Depop

    ASTON Villa summer signing Ollie Watkins has taken to the Premier League like a duck to water.
    The former Brentford hotshot has already struck three times since signing for £33million.

    And cheering him on is his stunning girlfriend Ellie Alderson, 24, who revealed how ‘proud’ she was of her beau when he joined Dean Smith’s side.
    The interior designer has dated Watkins since 2018, as the striker has risen to the top.
    Here’s their story.
    BY HIS SIDE
    At last season’s London Football Awards, Alderson was by her man’s side as he scooped the award for EFL Player of the Year.

    The beauty looked ready for Premier League Wag status – stunning in a black dress, alongside a suited and booted Watkins.
    Alderson, herself, is originally from Berkshire.
    She graduated from university with a diploma in interior design.
    She takes pride in her work, sharing her own Instagram page ‘Ellie Anderson Home’ which features all her home interiors designs.

    And Ellie has a twin. She often shares pictures with sister Sofia, who also looks amazing in a bikini.

    SHE’S THRIFTY
    Like most Wags, Ellie lives for travel and often shares her adventures on Instagram, on which she has just over 4,000 followers.
    She’s been to Paris, New York, Las Vegas and Barbados recently – often with her footballer boyfriend.
    But, despite her glam lifestyle, Ellie is thrifty.

    Just like Aston Villa defender Matt Targett’s girlfriend Jasmin Buckle, Ellie likes to flog designer clobber she no longer wears on shopping app Depop.
    From fancy dresses to jeans and sunglasses, there are bargains to be had.
    Which is what Aston Villa will be thinking they’ve got with their new signing if he continues to bang in the goals.

    Sophia, who turned 31 this week, announced on Instagram: “Summer, sun, pool and cocktails? That’s my thing!
    “Young people watching courtship, fighting and quarreling and also being able to comment and rate it? Even more my thing!

    Producers pair contestants together based on a matchmaking algorithm and through a series of dates they must try to figure out who science says they should be with.
    A 1million dollar (£774,000) reward is split between everyone if they guess all ten matches.
    Tattooed model Sophia is already filming on the Greek island of Paros.
    She said: “It’s going to be so awesome! I really feel like watching this drama.”

    Karius, 27, who joined Union Berlin on loan this summer, began dating Sophia towards the end of 2018.

    The German model has an eye for rockstars having previously dated Bush singer Gavin Rossdale.
    Before that, Thomalla dated Till Lindemann, a star from German heavy metal group Rammstein.
    And, in between, there was a year-long marriage to Norwegian singer Andy LaPlegua in 2016, another heavy metal performer.

    Thomalla made her name on Germany’s Next Top Model, but dropped out after the first round.
    She soon became a reality TV favourite and won the German version of Strictly Come Dancing in 2010.
    The same year she was voted the third most beautiful woman in the world by FHM magazine.

    Meet Spurs target Milik’s model Wag Jessica, who he chatted up in a shopping centre when she was 16 and out with her mum

    IT was love at first sight for Spurs target Arkadiusz Milik when he first clapped eyes on future fiancee Jessica Ziolek.
    The Napoli hitman, who was an aspiring teenage footballer in Poland at the time, spied the 25-year-old beauty in a shopping centre and knew he had to make his move.

    Undeterred by the presence of then-16-year-old Jessica’s mum on the scene, Milik casually asked the stunner for her number.
    But Ziolek, playing hard to get, initially joked he should find her on Facebook.
    SHOPPING AROUND
    When 17-year-old Milik went to a Polish shopping centre, he never would’ve imagined he’d be shopping for a future wife.
    However, he spotted Ziolek when she was searching for a gift for her sister’s husband in the men’s department, and couldn’t keep his eyes off her.

    “At one point, my mum noticed that a certain boy was watching me all the time,” Ziolek told Viva!
    “‘Mum, leave me alone!’ I said at first. Then the mysterious man came up and asked for my phone number.
    “As a rule, I do not give my number to strangers, I said teasingly that he could find me on Facebook.”

    HE HAD TO WAIT FOR HER
    In 2013, Milik and Ziolek were forced to live apart when he signed for German side Bayer Leverkusen.

    Her family believed it was important she stayed in Poland to finish her studies.
    “I wanted to do it (move) earlier, because I knew that my place was with him,” she told Gala in 2018.
    “But my mother told me to stay in Poland and pass my secondary school-leaving examination.”
    Six months later the two were reunited.
    SHE’S IN FASHION
    Ziolek has modelled for fashion campaigns in Poland and Italy.
    But now she’s a designer in her own right, having launched the Wild Mascot clothing brand in 2019.
    And it can be found in prestigious boutiques in Italy too.

    Ziolek’s designs are sold in the Michele Franzese boutiques, alongside fashion giants like Yves Saint Laurent.
    If she moves to North London, there’s plenty of trendy boutiques here that could stock her clothes.
    Maybe she’ll get fellow Spurs Wags to model it too.

    Nadia was criticised on Instagram by some followers who said she was too skinny on comments in her photos.
