You may have heard of many prominent names associated with Kardashian’s dating life. However, one name that likely hasn’t crossed your radar is Alecko Eskandarian. Apparently, this man was a former soccer player, who has even claimed not once but thrice that he dated the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star. These claims were vocally made on Twitter, now called X.

Eskandarian made his first tweet on August 30, 2010, where he praised the model. “Thank you @KimKardashian for being a fun date and a down-to-earth person. I had a great time and have nothing but good things to say about u.”

Later on November 12, 2014, the icon again tweeted about his first date, while making a cheezy remark about her beauty. “I’m gonna be honest… When I took her out on our date, that’s exactly what @KimKardashian was wearing. In my mind. Before I blacked out.”

Two years later, on October 3, 2016, Eskandarian again reminisced about his date with Kim. He wrote, “This @KimKardashian story sounds crazy. She was so cool and down to earth when we met. I’d imagine that might change now. Hope she’s ok…” Perhaps, Eskandarian was so mesmerized by Kardashian that he couldn’t get her off his mind.

Nevertheless, it’s quite surprising to learn that Kardashian may have once dated a former US soccer player. Notably, Eskandarian happened to be a former teammate of Kiki’s best friend, David Beckham.

In addition to creating unique memories with Kardashian, Eskandarian also had the opportunity to share a locker room with David Beckham. Both of them donned the same jersey while playing for the MLS side, LA Galaxy. Eskandarian joined the Galaxy three years after Beckham’s arrival in the United States, having previously played for rivals Chivas USA.

Following his retirement from professional soccer, Eskandarian ventured into coaching. Today, he holds the position of Senior Director of Player Relations and Player Development at Major League Soccer. Undoubtedly, Eskandarian’s life has been nothing short of a screenplay-worthy tale.
