The highly anticipated first appearance of Lionel Messi in Major League Soccer was attended by a number of celebrities, including Kim Kardashian and Victoria Beckham.

The Argentine will make his Inter Miami debut off the bench in Friday’s match against Cruz Azul in Fort Lauderdale.

I’m delighted to be here with Victoria and David and all of you. This game is going to be so much fun.

When asked if Saint has a favorite player, Kardashian said the No. 10 for Inter Miami got him’so thrilled.’

Photographs taken inside DRV PNK Stadium also captured NBA legend LeBron James, who was dressed casually in a white suit and a bucket hat. Prior to the playing of the national anthem, he was able to embrace Messi.

In the minutes before kickoff, he also posed for a portrait with David Beckham, taken by Victoria.

Recently, Kardashian has been sighted visiting Arsenal’s Emirates Stadium cheering on the Gunners in their pursuit of the 2022–23 Premier League championship alongside Manchester City’s superstar Erling Haaland.

Tennis superstar and local favorite Serena Williams was in attendance for the match against the Mexican club.
