It’s definitely not a surprise that her younger children have also followed the sport after North. Her son, Saint, is seemingly a die-hard Arsenal fan. That is also one of the main reasons why the Kardashians turned up for the Arsenal game. However, that wasn’t the end of the story. The American socialite also shared another video clip on Instagram.

The 42-year-old and her children were in conversation with Bukayo Saka, an Arsenal winger. Additionally, David Beckham surprised the Kardashians by sending them signed official Inter Miami jerseys.

Back in 2015, Kim Kardashian posted a heartwarming image on her Instagram. It was an image of her eldest daughter, North, who was seemingly running with a soccer ball. North was fully decked up in a professional soccer star’s attire. The star kid was wearing soccer boots and socks. She captioned that picture, “Officially a soccer mom! #MyLittleGoalie”.

Surprisingly, Zendaya has a strong connection with soccer too. A few months ago, the American actress met Son Heung-min. The American actress was at the Tottenham Hotspur headquarters along with co-star, Tom Holland. Son handed an official Spurs hamper to Zendaya. Holland then says, “You’re now a Spurs fan!”. Without any hesitation, Zendaya replies, “I know!”.
