The Mexican striker has been linked to Spanish reporter Lucía Villalon, who months ago was rumored to be dating Cristiano Ronaldo.

Javier Hernandez's season-long loan with Real Madrid may not have been as succesful as expected on the pitch, but it appears the Mexican striker did not waste any time to leave his mark in Spain. Chicharito was exposed today by a Spanish tabloid, kissing reporter Lucia Villalon. The thing is, Ms. Villalon was recently rumored to be dating Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, in a "shocking" turn of events.

The Spanish journalist denied such claims, but revealed she was dating someone else, and that "someone" is none other than Mexico's Number 14.

"I have a wonderful relationship with Cristiano. I've always been very professional with everyone I've worked with, and there's nothing more to it. Right now, I'm dating someone else and I'm really happy," Villalon said.

The cover of Spanish tabloid Hola! leaves no doubt about the romance between Chicharito and Villalon.

According to the news report, the Spanish journalist went with Hernandez to Madrid's airport to see him off, since he will be playing during this international break with his National team.

Villalon, who worked at Real Madrid TV during the time she was supposedly dating the Portuguese striker, has left the club's official channel to work at Antena 3, where she covers Formula 1 news.
