‘Soccer mom’ Kim Kardashian and her son Saint West are on cloud nine, courtesy of the Inter Miami captain Lionel Messi. Saint, an aspiring soccer player, has previously met with Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar, and Bukayo Saka. But the young boy’s most iconic moment came in today’s Miami-LA Galaxy MLS tie. It was Saint West who walked Leo Messi out to the field, as the Herons laced up for the kickoff against LA. David Beckham’s daughter Harper was the other star child who got the chance to lead the 2022 World Cup winner to the field.

“Saint walking Messi out on the field tonight at the La Galaxy vs Inter Miami game!!! He is living the absolute dream!,” the famous socialite tweeted shortly after the Miami-LA game ended in a tie. Fueling Saint’s happiness, La Pulga scored in the 92nd minute to save the Herons from collapsing on the road. Besides Kardashian, numerous other A-listers including Novak Djokovic made it to Tinsel Town to watch Lionel Messi’s action.

Kim Kardashian and Saint West have earlier showed up to an Inter Miami game during Lionel Messi’s debut. The 8-year-old interacted with La Pulga back then, exchanging warm handshakes. Kardashian and Saint’s soccer connection goes beyond that. Last month, the duo featured in a CBS show with Kevin Hart to disclose that the 2026 World Cup final will be held in the MetLife Stadium, New Jersey. Besides, Messi is not the only player with whom Saint shares warm memories. His interaction with Leo Messi’s arch-rival Cristiano Ronaldo also turned out to be as sweet.
