LOVE Island has signed up American footballer Medhy Malanda for Casa Amor, according to reports.
New names for the show's second villa have begun to trickle through ahead of its introduction next week.
We revealed racing driver Jack Barlow as the first hunk to be signed up and yesterday it was reported Chris Hughes's ex Mary Bedford will be one of the bombshells.
Now the claims Medhy will be among the new contestants.
The athlete, who can be seen working out on his social media feed, hasn't posted since July 5, which would tally up with him being in quarantine.
If his shirtless snaps are anything to go by, Medhy will cause a stir when he enters the villa.
He will be battling for the girls' affections with 26-year-old Jack, and both men seem more than used to a bit of competition.
A source told us: "Jack is gorgeous and successful, so he’s bound to set pulses racing and irritate the other lads. Bosses are confident he will shake things up and be a hit with the girls."

Dog-loving Jack travels the world driving some of the flashiest cars on the planet from Ferraris to McLarens.
Used to the high life, he has scuba-dived on the Great Barrier Reef and enjoyed the paradise of the Gili Islands in Indonesia.
