Club World Cup 2025 isn't just about volleys, goals, and tactical warfare. This summer, the United States is primed to host more than just a showdown of 32 elite football clubs; it's set to showcase the high society of the beautiful game.
While titans like Manchester City, Chelsea, PSG, and Real Madrid clash on the pitch starting June 15, the real stunners might just be in the stands. From internationally acclaimed models to singers with famous exes, and from childhood sweethearts to reality show icons, these WAGs (wives and girlfriends) are no mere arm candy; they're headline-makers in their own right. With that said, let's take a tour through the women who'll be adding star power to the sidelines.

It took months of public whispers and eagle-eyed fans, but Ruben Dias and Maya Jama finally confirmed the romance everyone suspected, courtesy of a picture-perfect holiday in Italy. The 30-year-old TV queen, however, won't be joining him stateside. Why? Duty calls in Mallorca, where Maya is helming Love Island's latest season (per The Sun).
Meanwhile, Erling Haaland's sweetheart, Isabel Haugseng Johansen, is staying home, basking in new motherhood after welcoming a baby in December. Motherhood before matchday, as they say.
Cole Palmer, the pride of Manchester, is currently dating Connie Grace, a blonde beauty from his own stomping grounds. Meanwhile, teammate Marc Cucurella shares three children with the effortlessly stylish Claudia Rodriguez. These ladies, with their low-key elegance and unshakable loyalty, offer Chelsea's lineup an enviable dose of both charm and devotion.
Sharing a group with Chelsea, Brazilian giants Flamengo bring flair both on and off the field. Midfielder Jorginho, once a Blue himself, is now engaged to Catherine Harding, a singer who previously had a child with none other than Jude Law. This coupling straddles the world of stadium chants and red carpets.
Saudi Arabia's Al-Hilal isn't holding back. The club boasts familiar faces like Joao Cancelo, accompanied by long-time partner Daniela Machado. Aleksandar Mitrović's wife, Kristina, will be right beside her, providing a unified front for their ambitious campaign. These women might just be the calm in their husbands' chaotic matchdays.
Lionel Messi, the crown jewel of Inter Miami, needs no introduction. Neither does his rock-solid partner, Antonela Roccuzzo, who has been by his side since their childhood days in Rosario. Their trio of sons complete this football fairy tale. Joining Messi are old comrades Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets, and Jordi Alba, each tethered to their long-time loves: Sofia Balbi, Elena Galera, and Romarey Ventura, respectively. Talk about a full-strength support system.
The Spanish powerhouse doesn't just pack star players; it houses WAGs with serious screen presence. Jude Bellingham is currently dating 27-year-old American influencer and model Ashlyn Castro, a woman with a résumé that includes famous flings and a front-row seat beside Jude's mum at Bernabeu. Meanwhile, Gabriely Miranda, tied to teenage phenom Endrick, has reportedly sparked conversation with their unusual husband and wife contract.
Aine May Kennedy, the Irish rose and model linked to Conor Gallagher, might just bring her passport to the States to support her man. With a love for sun-soaked vacations and global escapades, Aine's Instagram is practically a travel magazine on its own.
Marquinhos, fresh off captaining PSG to Champions League success, will have Carol Cabrino, his TikTok-famous wife, in tow. Not to be outshone, Alessia Elefante, girlfriend of Italy's No.1 Gianluigi Donnarumma, continues to prove she's as loyal as she is stylish.
Even with manager Simone Inzaghi jumping ship to Al-Hilal, Inter isn't lacking support in the WAGs department. Agustina Gandolfo, wife of striker Lautaro Martinez, is a dazzling entrepreneur and influencer in her own right. Benjamin Pavard, meanwhile, is engaged to Kleofina Pnishi, an actress and 2017's Miss Provence winner. This duo might just be Italy's most photogenic exports.
Who says footballers only date models? Karim Adeyemi went against the grain, marrying Loredana, a Swiss rapper with four chart-topping albums in Germany. Their relationship, solidified in a private ceremony last year, blends stadium chants with studio beats.
