Love Island fans are convinced newest bombshell Reece

Following the news that four new bombshells would be turning up the heat in the Love Island villa, fans rushed to Twitter on Wednesday convinced that one looked the spitting image of Everton footballer Dele Alli.

Model Reece Ford, 23, from Coventry, sent the internet into meltdown shortly after his identity was revealed with his Premiership doppelganger even trending on the social media site as a result.

Taking to the platform one viewer wrote: ‘Breaking news Dele Alli has retired from professional football to go on Love Island’.

While another shared a snap of the two men side by side commenting: ‘Life at Everton got so long for Dele Alli that he’s entering the villa. 

Milton Keynes born Dele, 26, has played for the Liverpool team since January after transferring from rival team Totteham Hotspur for a reported £10 million. 

One fan wrote: ‘Reece looks like Dele Alli to me’ while another added ‘This [Reece] is Dele Alli, can’t tell me otherwise’. 

Convinced: Taking to the platform one viewer wrote: ‘Breaking news Dele Alli has retired from professional football to go on Love Island’

Many also compared the newest reality star to Manchester United footballer  Cristiano Ronaldo, 37.

One wrote of Reece: ‘If Ronaldo and Dele Alli had a child’ and a second joked: ‘What’s Ronaldo doing on Love Island?’.

A football fan made a false press announcement about the athlete joining the show writing: ‘Cristiano Ronaldo to Love Island, here we go! Full agreement now in place with all parties, he will be joining the villa soon’.

Score: Milton Keynes born Dele, 26, has played for the Liverpool team since January after transferring from rival team Tottenum Hotspur for a reported £10 million

Secret skills: Reece also enjoys a kickabout and shares snaps to his social media 

Adding: ‘This summer was huge as the Portuguese star was pushing for a move away from Manchester United’.

It comes ahead of the Love Island stars meeting the newest arrivals during Wednesday’s episode; which include Reece, Jamie Allen, Lacey Edwards and Nathalia Campos. 

Describing himself model Reece said: ‘I definitely think the boys are going to be worried about me, I am tall, dark and handsome, what more does a girl want?’.

Twins:  Many also compared the newest reality star (right) to Manchester United footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, 37 (left)

Although he’s still in his early twenties, Reece insisted he’s ready to settle down: ‘I am mature enough now. I was a bit of a ‘Jack the lad’ and a player but now I feel like I am more mature and ready to find love.’

During the episode the bombshells make their way into the Villa, upon entering 25-year-old dancer Lacey says: ‘I am a sexy, single, show girl ready to turn some heads.’

The beauty added that she thinks her background as a dancer will help her on the show, saying: ‘I’ve grown up at auditions with a thousand girls competing for five places and if you don’t want it and you’re not competitive, there’s no point showing up.

‘I feel like it’s the same with guys within this context, we’ve all gone in to find someone and just because I am coming in later does not mean that I am not going to give it my all.’ 

27-year-old professional footballer Jamie comments: ‘I shoot, I usually score, if I want something, I’ll go and get it.’

Jamie also said that, as he is entering the villa at a later stage, he’ll have no problem stepping on the other guys’ toes to get the girl he wants.

Asked if he is competitive, he said: ‘I play football every single day and in terms of stepping on people’s toes we are all in there for the same reason so I wouldn’t have a problem upsetting a few people. 

‘I am coming in a bit later so I probably will upset a few lads but you gotta do what you gotta do what you gotta do.’ 

23-year-old Brazilian social media influencer Nathalia added: ‘I am going to bring the South American spice into the Villa, I can’t wait to get my flirting game on, the girls better watch out.’
