Stars from all around will come to watch a Lionel Messi game, and his Inter Miami CF debut was no exception.
LeBron James, Kim Kardashian, Serena Williams, David, and Victoria Beckham were among the notable faces there for the Argentine’s MLS debut versus Cruz Azul at DRV PNK Stadium on Friday night.
Saint, Kardashian’s son, who was “so excited” to meet his favorite player, 36-year-old Messi, encouraged her to attend.
On the Apple TV+ pregame show, Kardashian stated, “We’re attending various exhibition games all summer.” “I spent five or six years playing soccer. I was a center-forward and a goalie, and I wasn’t bad, you know!
I’m glad that my son enjoys it and that we can go because I enjoyed it. I get so delighted simply seeing them be excited.
“I’m glad to be here with David [Beckham], Victoria, and everyone. The game is going to be so much fun, according to Kardashian.
The 19-time NBA All-Star and four-time NBA champion James, who was inside the stadium and was wearing a white T-shirt and a white bucket hat, was able to give Messi a hug and maybe exchange a few kind words before the game.
When asked if Saint had a favorite player, Kardashian responded that it was Lionel Messi, the new number 10 for Inter Miami and one of the finest players in sports.
The two had seen one of Messi’s teams in action before as well. They were seen in March cheering as Paris Saint-Germain defeated Rennes 2-0 at the Parc des Princes.
LeBron James, a legend in the NBA, was also present in the A-list crowd at the DRV PNK Stadium. Prior to the game, he was seen hugging Messi while wearing a bucket hat and t-shirt with white patterns.
