“Francesco was God’s gift.” With those simple words, Alexia Notto revealed what matters most to her. While Miguel Almirón’s pace and creativity have made headlines on the football pitch, their family life has unfolded away from the spotlight, built on faith, love, and support. So, who is the woman standing beside the Paraguayan star? Let’s take a closer look at Alexia Notto’s story.
Who is Miguel Almirón’s wife, Alexia Notto?
Alexia Notto is the wife of Paraguayan football star Miguel Almirón. The couple has been together since their teenage years in Paraguay, long before Almirón became a household name. Their story stretches from youth football fields in Asunción to packed stadiums in England and the United States, and to international tournaments.
Professionally, Alexia is a trained dancer and certified Zumba instructor. Beyond supporting her husband’s career, she has built her own presence on social media, where she shares glimpses of family life, travel, fitness, and everyday moments with her followers.
What are Alexia Notto’s height and age?
Alexia Notto has not publicly revealed her exact age, birth date, or height. Based on public appearances alongside Miguel Almirón, she appears slightly shorter than him, but no verified measurements exist.
Likewise, she has never publicly confirmed her religious denomination. However, faith plays an important role in the family’s life. Her social media reflects the couple’s strong Christian beliefs without specifying a particular church or denomination, as they celebrate Christmas, mention God in her captions, and celebrated their marriage once again in the Church.
How did Miguel Almirón and Alexia Notto meet?
Their love story started on an ordinary afternoon in Asunción. Alexia only attended a youth football match because her cousin convinced her to watch her brother Alejandro play for Cerro Porteño’s academy. She expected nothing more than another family outing. Then, one player caught her attention. “As I’m watching the game I see a kid wearing the number 10 jersey, and he was running from one end to the other end, and from that end to the other, and back again.”
That player was Miguel Almirón. Alexia later admitted she was so short-sighted she never actually saw his face clearly during the match. “I don’t see very well, so I never saw his face. I just saw him playing.” His energy, determination, and passion stayed with her long after the final whistle. After the match, she asked for a picture before sending him a friend request on Facebook. He happily accepted, and their messages quickly turned into daily conversations.

The relationship faced its biggest challenge when he earned a move to Argentine club Lanús. The transfer happened quickly, forcing the young couple to choose between distance and building a future together. She left behind the life she knew and followed Miguel from Argentina to Atlanta, then Newcastle, and back to the United States. She became the steady presence beside him.
Years after beginning their journey together, the couple married on August 29, 2016, in a civil ceremony. Nearly a decade later, Miguel surprised Alexia with a heartfelt church proposal before they renewed their vows in a religious ceremony. Sharing the emotional moment on Instagram in December 2025, she wrote: “Yes, once and a thousand times over. After nine years of our first yes, now the yes before God. Thank you, my love, for this unforgettable and amazing surprise.”
Just days later, she shared highlights from their church wedding celebration with the simple caption: “06/12/2025 ♥️”
What does Alexia Notto do?
Alexia has built her own identity outside football. She works as a professional dancer and certified Zumba instructor while also maintaining a growing social media presence.
Throughout Miguel’s career, she has balanced work with family responsibilities, adapting to life in Argentina, the United States, England, and back to Atlanta. Despite being married to a football star, she prefers to share authentic glimpses of everyday life rather than seek constant media attention.
Meet Miguel Almirón and Alexia Notto’s children
Miguel and Alexia have one child, Francesco Almirón Notto, who was born on June 6, 2021. While the couple keeps much of their life private, Francesco regularly appears in family photos, football celebrations, and special moments shared on Alexia’s Instagram.
His arrival changed everything for the family. Alexia has revealed that she discovered her pregnancy while grieving the loss of her grandfather during the COVID-19 pandemic. It was one of the darkest periods of her life.
Meanwhile, fatherhood has revealed another side of Miguel. Away from football, he is a devoted family man who treasures every moment with his son. Whether celebrating victories on the pitch, enjoying holidays in Paraguay, or spending quiet time at home, Miguel makes sure Francesco remains at the center of family life.
The couple has also spoken about the values they hope to teach him. They aren’t focused on raising the next football star. “We don’t care if he becomes a footballer or follows a different path. What matters is that he becomes a good, joyful human being.”
