Popular rapper Kanye West or ‘Ye’ has been a controversial figure in the past few years. Not only in politics, but he has a history in soccer as well. Back in 2018, he got connected with the Premier League club Manchester United. It all started with a meme that the club posted on their social. However, due to his open support to then-president Donald Trump, it caught a bit of heat. During the FIFA break of 2018, Manchester United posted a picture of a famous rapper with a straight face and captioned, “The international break has got us like…” In the picture, Kanye West had dawned the club merchandise, which raised a few eyebrows in the soccer community. The tweet caught fire because a couple of days prior Ye in a 10-minute rant video praised Trump. The Rapper would go on to be a part of several other controversies, however, the story from 5 years ago had been re-instigated in fans’ hearts by West. KANYE WEST IN MANCHESTER UNITED MERCH AGAIN! A couple of pictures from yesterday have made their way to social media in which Kanye West had dawned a jacked with the Manchester United logo on it. They took the pictures at the opening of the new store of the Yeezy shoe brand in Los Angeles. After a dramatic breakout between Yeezy and Adidas because of the controversies Kanye West was racking up, Kanye West has decided to troll the sports giants back in a hilarious manner. He has reportedly opened up the headquarters for his shoe brand right next to an Adidas store in the city of Angeles. Back to Kanye West [https://www.essentiallysports.com/nba-basketball-news-hours-after-usher-serenades-kim-kardashian-basketball-brings-her-back-to-kanye-west/] According to a few reports, the location for the new office for Yeezy is now finalized and there is just a hair saloon separating the office from the brand’s former distributors. According to various estimates, the loss Adidas faced because of stopping the sale of Yeezys is in billions. It appears that Adidas has a few Yeezy designs that they might want to repurpose for a new band. This will be one way to recoup some amount from the excruciating loss they recently faced. Meanwhile, Kanye is taking, ‘keep your enemy close’ advice very seriously. Only time will tell, if there is any twist left in this saga, while Manchester United continues to be a favorite of the rapper.

<h2>History</h2>
The history of modern soccer can be dated back to the mid-nineteenth century when local clubs in England came forward and established a set of rules, leading to the formation of the Football Association in London, England, on 26 October 1863. A total of 11 soccer clubs were present at the first meeting of the FA, along with representatives from different schools. Eight years after its culmination, the FA had 50 member clubs. In 1872, the association started the world's oldest competition to this date: the FA Cup. Since the FA Cup was a knockout competition, 12 clubs decided to start the Football League. It was the top-tier league competition in England till 1992. However, in 1992, 22 teams decided to split and formed the Premier League.
