JAKARTA - Brazilian legend Adriano has ended his short-lived love affair with a medical student who is half his age.

Adriano has been dating 21 year old Ceu Oliveira since January. Their relationship was first made public just days after the pair celebrated the former Inter Milan striker's 40th birthday at a Rio de Janeiro restaurant.

Now, Adriano - whose career has suffered from alcoholism and depression - has unfollowed the beautiful woman on social media and has also deleted all traces of their online photos together, including selfies from a trip they took to the Brazilian resort of Buzios to celebrate a local carnival.

Reports in Brazil say Adriano is enjoying life as a single man again and was caught on camera last weekend partying at a nightclub in Rio with his friends into the wee hours of the morning.

The reason why he broke up with Ceu, his first girlfriend since breaking up with student Laisa Lemos last year, has not been revealed.

Adriano was first linked with Ceu days after he spent £13,000 with 18 women a night.

Brazilian media Extra said Adriano consoled himself after his move to French club Le Havre failed at the last minute in 2015. At that time, the striker, who had played for Parma and Fiorentina, flew back from France to Rio and took sex workers to private parties. at a motel until the wee hours of the morning.

March last year, Adriano dated two of his ex-girlfriends at the same time. The funny thing is, one doesn't realize that he's dating the other.

Emerging reports suggest Adriano, who won four Serie A titles with Inter Milan, has sold his £1.2 million home and moved to a luxury hotel in Rio de Janeiro.

According to Extra.Globo, the striker's former fiancé, Victoria Moreira, has often been seen in the presidential suite at the Grand Hyatt that Adriano has rented since he moved.

However, this is where the story gets complicated. It is believed that his other ex-girlfriend, Micaela Mesquita, also frequented the hotel at different times.

A source close to Adriano said he tried his best to separate his partner by only inviting Micaela when Victoria was at home in North Fluminense. Victoria did not realize Adriano's trick.

The 40-year-old was previously engaged to Victoria until June 2020, while he also enjoyed a brief relationship with Micaela between 2016 and 2018.

Back then, their love triangle was reported to have been going on for the past three months. Adriano covered it up by not taking pictures outside the hotel with one of his women.

The former Brazil forward, who scored 27 goals in 48 games for his country, is yet to find a new permanent residence after moving his family to the Barro do Tijuca hotel.

He is said to be paying around £11,000 per month for a 145 square meter room which has a balcony overlooking the sea and a swimming pool.
