Saint West, the eldest son of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, had a memorable Sunday night as he walked hand-in-hand with soccer legend Lionel Messi before Inter Miami's game against the LA Galaxy. In a video shared by Inter Miami, Saint, dressed in an LA Galaxy kit, was seen walking onto the field with Messi, who looked fondly at the 8-year-old.
The team captioned the video on Instagram, which Kardashian reposted, expressing Saint's excitement at walking out with Messi. This wasn't the first time Saint had the chance to interact with Messi, who joined Inter Miami in 2023. He had previously attended Messi's MLS debut alongside his mother and a friend.
After the game, Saint and his friend chanted Messi's name and got a photo with the soccer star, creating a memorable experience for the boys. Saint, an aspiring soccer player, has had the opportunity to meet many of his idols, thanks to his family connections.
Earlier in Japan, Saint met Cristiano Ronaldo and shared a secret handshake with the footballer. In Paris, he and his friends met Kylian Mbappé after watching a Paris Saint Germain game and later FaceTimed Neymar Jr., wishing him a speedy recovery.
These experiences have made Saint one lucky soccer fan, with his mother documenting their adventures on social media. From meeting Ronaldo to interacting with top players like Mbappé and Neymar, Saint's passion for soccer is evident, and his encounters with his idols have left a lasting impression on him.
