Arsenal fans have slammed Kim Kardashian as a “glory hunter” after hearing rumors she will attend the Champions League clash against Bayern Munich tonight.
A Gunners fan account claimed she is “planning to visit” and shared a photo of herself and her son West from an Arsenal match last year.
Kardashian watched Arsenal exit the Europa League against Sporting CP at the Emirates in March 2023 with her son, but also revealed her affection for Erling Haaland.
Fans appear to be opposed to Kardashian attending their match against Bayern tonight and have hailed Rihanna as an example of an honest celebrity who supports her.
Rihanna was present when Arsenal beat Everton 5-1 in February 2018, in a difficult season in which they stuttered to sixth place in the Premier League and said goodbye to Arsene Wenger.
Fans have branded Kim Kardashian a ‘glory hunter’ and do not want her to attend their match against Bayern Munich as rumored.
On the contrary, one fan praised Rihanna as a true fan and shared a photo of her visit to Arsenal in 2018, even though she was only there as a PUMA representative.

The pop star met the players and was hailed as a lucky charm, but it’s worth noting she was only there as a PUMA ambassador.
“Look at these glory hunters… Rihanna was with us in the trenches,” one fan responded to the Kardashian rumors, showing a photo of Rihanna with Shkodran Mustafi and Sead Kolasinac from 2018.
“We’re done man,” wrote another on x, formerly Twitter.
“Someone stop her,” said one staunchly anti-Kardashian user.
‘Please no [attend]’ said another.
“Please someone inform UEFA that she is a Bayern Munich fan,” someone joked.
One slightly dramatic commenter hinted at extreme measures to prevent Kardashian from taking joy in the Emirates’ action: “I’m calling the police.”
To be fair to Kardashian, there wasn’t much glory to be sought when Arsenal were knocked out of the Europa League last 16 on penalties when she attended last season.
Fans are against Kardashain attending the game and they see her as a bad luck charm.
Explaining why he was there, he said: ‘I try to find what my children’s passion is and take a journey with them. I took Chicago and her friends to San Diego. They love zoos and Legoland and all that.
‘Luckily, Psalm just goes with you, you know? North loves Paris and fashion, so I took her to Paris. Saint loves football so I thought this would be our trip. “It will be a lot of fun and it will definitely be an amazing bonding experience.”
He posed in an Arsenal shirt presented by Eddie Nketiah and his children also wore the club’s shirts.
Everyone revealed that Bukayo Saka is their favorite player in the current squad.
Some believed that Arsenal’s decline towards the end of the season meant some kind of Kardashain curse.
“Arsenal lost the title when Kim Kardashian visited them,” wrote one user. ‘That lady is just bad luck, especially for the guys she and her sisters have dated. “She feels sorry for the Arsenal fans, who led the title race and then lost it at the end.”
She has also hinted that she and her son have feelings for Erling Haaland.
The reality TV icon traveled with his son, Saint, to watch Arsenal at the Emirates last season.
The 43-year-old immersed herself in the drama of the match in which Arsenal lost on penalties.
“I was in Italy and I saw Erling Haaland, and I got really scared because I knew my son would be so excited, it’s like his thing,” she told GQ.
”So, I’m like a loser FaceTiming this event and saying, ‘Saint, you’ll never guess who I ran into.’ I’m talking to him on FaceTime and I’m saying, ‘I’ve become this person who… is… I’m sorry.’
He also revealed that Cristiano Ronaldo is one of Saint’s idols and that the couple loves watching Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami.
