Saint West took the internet by storm on Sunday when he appeared alongside Lionel Messi before the LA Galaxy hosted Inter Miami.
8-year-old Saint is the son of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. “Saint walking Messi out on the field tonight at the La Galaxy vs Inter Miami game!!! He is living the absolute dream!” America’s soccer mom, Kardashian, tweeted to her 75 million followers.
Football fan Saint meets his idol
Saint is a massive football player fan, with his mom taking him to see games across Europe last season to see Arsenal and PSG, to name a couple.
Saint previously met his idol, Messi, during the Argentine’s inaugural season. He and his friend took selfies with the maestro. His dad Kayne also once rapped about his son and Messi playing football, “They playing soccer in my backyard i think i see messi,” he references on track “Off the Grid” from 2021’s Donda album.
The game at Dignity Health Sports Park ended 1-1, with the leading man scoring a late equalizer in stoppage time. Messi has one strike and one assist in his first two MLS games this season, lifting the Herons atop the Eastern Conference table.
