American socialite Kim Kardashian stood out among thrilled celebrities when Lionel Messi chose to join Inter Miami last summer.

With pride and enthusiasm, the businesswoman has openly declared her admiration for the magical Argentine.

As a property owner in Miami, the reality TV star enjoys the advantage of being able to see the eight-time Ballon d'Or winner up close practically whenever she desires.

In her latest Instagram update, Kardashian reaffirmed her allegiance to Inter Miami and her admiration for Messi, as the team enjoys a promising start to the 2024 Major League Soccer season.

She shared an image of a black and pink Inter Miami shirt, which serves as the team's away kit this season, along with a pink Inter Miami sash. Both uploads appeared to be spontaneous and without any apparent prompting, via Marca.

Many are hopeful that Messi will guide the Herons to their maiden MLS Cup victory this fall.

Kardashian's enduring admiration for Messi

After securing a 3-1 victory against Nashville SC last Saturday, Inter Miami now leads the Eastern Conference with 18 points from 10 games.

Messi's double goal contribution surely brought joy to Kardashian, especially considering her previous statement about her son Saint "living the dream" when he had the opportunity to escort the Argentine onto the field at Dignity Health Sports Park for a game against the LA Galaxy in February.

Messi and Kardashian had a brief encounter last season, just before the Argentine made his official North American debut in a Leagues Cup game against Cruz Azul.

He sealed the match with a game-winning free kick during second-half stoppage time.

With Inter Miami's push for the MLS Cup this season, anticipate more interactions between Kardashian and one of the sport's greatest of all time.

Kardashian's son picks his GOAT

Sports Brief also reported that Kim Kardashian's sports-loving son, Saint, has waded into the ongoing debate over who is the greatest footballer between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Together with his celebrity mom and younger brother, Psalm, Saint has made attending football games a regular ritual, showing up at numerous big matches across Europe last season.
