The celebrity model's love for the sport extended to her visiting Cristiano Ronaldo's team, Al-Nassr during their pre-season friendly ahead of the new season.

This newfound enthusiasm for football was revealed in the latest episode of The Kardashians. In the episode, Kim disclosed her upcoming football plans, saying:

"We're gonna go to London first, to go to an Arsenal game, and then we're gonna go to Paris to see the Paris Saint-Germain game. Kendall will be there and it'll just be so much fun," she told her sister, Kylie Jenner as reported by Sportskeeda.

During the same episode of the reality TV show, Kim's son, Saint West was asked about his favourite football player.

Snubbing both Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, both of whom he recently met, Saint declared his admiration for Arsenal winger, Bukayo Saka.

Saka, who gained prominence under former coach, Unai Emery, has continued to play a pivotal role in the club's development under current manager, Mikel Arteta.

His exceptional talent recently earned him the prestigious PFA Young Player of the Year award, as reported by Goal.

Saka is poised to leave a significant mark on the football world alongside other emerging stars like Kylian Mbappe and Real Madrid's Vinicius Junior.

It's worth noting that Kim previously shared on Instagram a Facetime conversation she had with the Arsenal star after the match against Sporting CP in the Europa League.
