WHEN the smooth operator Raphinha proposed to his wife Natalia Rodrigues, he did so with some style.
The Brazilian ace, who is wanted in a transfer battle between Chelsea, Arsenal and Barcelona, pulled out all the stops on the eve of her birthday.

The romantic 25-year-old created a candle-lit path through the house for ‘Taia’ to walk down.
He then dropped to one knee in front of a huge lit “Marry Me” sign and proposed to the beauty’s hand, beaming with his proposal.
A month later, they shared the moment when they said “I do” in a clip on Instagram.
Over the years, Rodrigues has proven to be one of the Premier League’s glorious Wags.
Designer clobber is her poison, while she loves a glam vacation in a luxurious location.
Who is she?
But not much is known about how Raphinha and Taia met, or when.
What we do know, however, is that she has amassed nearly 40,000 followers on Instagram – captivated by the lifestyle she leads.
Like any respectable Wag she loves to travel and seems to be in constant motion.
She is currently enjoying the preseason with her beau – where they have enjoyed some time in Ibiza, Spain and now in Doha, Qatar.
In May she traveled to Paris for a short vacation – dressed in Balenciaga.
She also enjoys trips to London – she has made two visits in the past few months. Chelsea and Arsenal take note.

With an enviable figure, Taia isn’t afraid to show off her body in a range of revealing bikinis.
And when she goes out casual, you can be sure she’s dressed to perfection in designer clothes, often with her favorite Dolce & Gabbana handbag in her hand.
Louis Vuitton is also common in her wardrobe.
It’s not all fancy clothing, though, with room for fun.
Last Halloween, she dressed up at Raphinha for the occasion.

She wore a black dress and red cape and even added a vampire love bite to her neck to get into the spirit of things.
Next season, according to all reports, she will have the choice of three different football tops to wear.
Which shirt will she look better in? Chelsea, Arsenal or Barcelona?
