Argentinian journalist Cinthia Fernandez made the explosive claims this week.
“Gisela apparently found them in her own home, in her own bed," Fernandez said on Argentine TV.
“She opened the door and there was Fernando Gago with this other woman.
"They got married 10 years ago and have three children. They always kept a low profile.
“They separated because of his unfaithfulness. He cheated on her with her best friend.
“That group of friends were mums at their kids’ school. Gisela has changed them to a different school.”
Gago, who retired from professional football last November, recently stepped down as manager of Club Atletico Aldosivi after six-consecutive defeats.
According to local reports, the affair allegations played a part in Gago's decision to resign.
