Khabib Nurmagomedov was backing PSG against Barcelona in the Champions League and got the jerseys of Kylian Mbappe and Keylor Navas
Khabib Nurmagomedov was on hand to see a Kylian Mbappe masterclass as Barcelona were routed by Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in the first leg of the Champions League round of 16.
PSG and Barcelona have some of the best players in the world featuring for them but this match didn’t go the way of the hosts.
Barcelona started off brightly with Lionel Messi scoring at the Camp Nou. However, Mbappe stole the show with a hat-trick while his teammate, Moise Kean, also got on the score sheet.
PSG ended up winning 4-1 to take a huge advantage into their home leg and it seems Barcelona are going to exit the competition.
Khabib was extremely pleased with the result and caught some of the goals too. However, the big talking point was the jerseys he got from the players.
Khabib is a huge football fan and has shown off his skills in charity games in the past. However, he seems to be close to a lot of the PSG players too.
Mbappe is one of the best players in the world and only gets better with more game time. His hat-trick was sublime and he signed his jersey before giving it to Khabib.
That wasn’t the only gift he got from it. Former Real Madrid keeper and current PSG keeper, Keylor Navas, also handed Khabib his jersey.
Khabib was pleased with the two gifts but it is unlikely he will be keeping them. The Russian has often auctioned such items to raise money for charity, something he did after his win over Dustin Poirier too.
The Russian is enjoying his time away from the UFC limelight and is attending a lot of football matches and other events.
He still has time to comment on other MMA stars, such as fighting Georges St-Pierre, but it is unlikely he will come out of MMA retirement soon.
