Now we have all probably noticed famous faces attending some of the biggest football matches.
However, you may have been thinking, are they there for their team or maybe just their other half.
From your favourite artist to even the prime minister of London, I have gone ahead and done research on what teams some of the most well-known celebrities follow.
Here on this list, I will be going through which football clubs some of your favourite celebrities support.

What Football Teams Do YouTubers Support?
1. Callux – Arsenal
Commonly known for his involvement with the sidemen and KSI, but more recently, his creation of No-Two Ways, Callux is a big Arsenal supporter.
A few years his love for the club went so far that he went and got a picture of him and his favorite player Olivier Giroud printed on his shirt.
2. Calfreezy – Manchester United
Calfreezy has made a name for being a YouTuber who does football challenges online and has worked with the sidemen on many occasions.
Within these videos, he has not only talked about how he is a big Manchester United fan, but he has also had the privilege of creating content with stars such as Jesse Lingard and Marcus Rashford.
3. Chunkz – Arsenal FC
Known for making funny YouTube videos as part of the group Beta Squad and also being a part of the Sky Sports team, he is spoken a lot on social media about the club he supports Arsenal.
In the past few years, Chunkz has made quite a name for himself, which because of his following has also given him the opportunity to make videos with pros such as Declan Rice.

4. ChrisMD – Arsenal
ChrisMD is another YouTuber who supports Arsenal, and while he was born on a little island called Jersey he has been a fan of the club since childhood.
On his YouTube he quite often brings up many of the Arsenal players that he looks up to and has worked with, Fabregas being one of the players which he said he looked years ago during his spell with the Gunners.
Over the past few years, he has also been able to create videos with members of the Arsenal team, including the likes of Hector Bellerin and Cesc as shown below.
What Football Teams Do Singers Support?
1. Harry Styles
Harry Styles is a football fan of Manchester United.
It is known that he is a big football fan, not only because of pictures online of him in United kits but also his appearances on Soccer Aid too.
2. Louis Tomlinson
Having grown up in South Yorkshire, Louis grew up being a boyhood fan of Doncaster Rovers, who are currently in league one.
Just like his former band member Harry, he also appeared in Soccer Aid back in 2016.
3. Aj Tracey
Having brought out a number track called Rain with Atich that hit number 2, Aj Tracey is another artist increasing in popularity.
With songs called ‘Ladbroke Grove,’ it was almost obvious that he would be a supporter of a London club.
He is a passionate football fan of Tottenham Hotspur and has been ever since he can remember.
Not only does he like to voice his opinions on the club, he even has them tattooed on his arm.
4. Aitch
Aitch has had a big rise to fame over the last few years with multiple hits in the top 1o of the UK charts.
When it comes to football, Aitch is a big supporter of Manchester United, having been born 20 minutes away from Old Trafford.
The picture below is one of many you will see of him repping his team’s colours.
5. Anne Marie
Despite having that strong Essex accent, that would suggest she is a fan of a London team, it turns out Anne Marie has a soft spot for Man United.
She has put on her social media her love for the club and has also uploaded pictures with the team.
6. Alex Turner – Sheffield Wednesday
Since the Arctic Monkeys are based in Sheffield, the group is a mixture of Sheffield United and Wednesday fans.
Of the two, Alex Turner is a supporter of Sheffield Wednesday and has been from the get-go.
He, along with his fellow bandmates, are often seen going to the games and supporting their teams.
7. Adele – Tottenham Hotspur
Adele has been a lifelong fan of Tottenham Hotspur, having grown up in close proximity with their previous stadium.
If you have or ever catch one of her tours, you may have seen her hold up a spurs scarf showing her love and roots to Tottenham.
8. Ariana Grande – Real Madrid FC
While you wouldn’t have suspected Ariana Grande supports a football team, she is, funnily enough, a fan of Real Madrid.
Whether she is a true fan is yet known, as the singer hasn’t really mentioned the club much.
However, a few years back in 2015, a video emerged online where she was using filters on social media to spur on the Los Blanco’s in the Final of the Champions League.
9. Katy Perry – West Ham
While it most likely had a great deal to do with her relationship with Russell Brand in the early 2010s.
Katy Perry wore the West Ham club colours and logo to an awards show years ago.
It’s likely not enough for her to be a die-hard West Ham fan, but until she mentions another football team, we will take it she is a hammer.
What Football Teams Do Actors And Actresses Support?
1. Tom Holland
Known for starring in the recent Spider-Man series, Tom Holland has been questioned many times on favourite club.
Despite not featuring for Arsenal veteran sides in the past, he has confirmed he isn’t a gunner.
Because of that, the football team Tom Holland supports remains a mystery.
2. The Rock
While you wouldn’t expect the Rock to be a huge follower of football here in the UK.
He is indeed a fan of one club in the English football league.
This is in fact Macclesfield Town, one of the most random teams you would expect a Hollywood actor to support.
The reason for him supporting isn’t because he has been following them for a while or because he has watched them play.
With him saying it was random and referring to them as ‘the pride of cheshire’ in a interview over a decade ago.
What Football Teams Do The Royal Family/Politicians Support?
1. The Queen
While you will rarely see the queen at football matches, some people are curious as to what football teams the royal family support as they do keep it quite hidden.
Being based in London, it only makes sense that London teams are being talked about as teams they support.
While not confirmed, it’s said she is an Arsenal fan like Prince William.
2. Boris Johnson
While some people may not be on board with Boris Johnson, one thing you can agree with him on is the scrapping of the European Super League.
However, despite his opinions on current events and involvement in footballing events, he has remained silent over the team he supports.
3. Barack Obama
This one is such a random and unexpected one, but the former president of the USA is a supporter of the West Ham football club.
While it’s cool that he pays attention to football in the UK, his connection with the club isn’t as random as you would initially think.
That is because his sister is based down in East London, and when he visits the capital, he makes sure to catch a game.
One thing is for sure, and that is he couldn’t have picked a better London club to support!
What Football Teams Do Sports Athletes Support?
1. Anthony Joshua – Watford
Growing up in Watford, Anthony Joshua started supporting the newly promoted premier league side at a young age.
He has also spoken about how Cristiano Ronaldo, a player he is met in person, is his favourite player too.
2. Lando Norris – Bristol City
Lando Norris’s team may be McClaren on the racing track, but when it comes to football, his team has been Bristol City.
This is due to a combination of growing up in the city and his dad’s connections to the club.
3. Andy Murray – Arsenal/Hibernian
Born and raised in Scotland, the tennis ace grew up being a follower of Hibernian FC.
However, during the ‘invincible’ days in the early noughties, Murray found himself gravitating to Arsenal, mainly because of Robert Pires, who was one of his favourite players.
4. Conor Mcgregor – Manchester United
Now I don’t know why, but almost all the Irish people I have met in my life have been fans of Manchester United.
While I haven’t met Conor McGregor, the UFC fighter has spoken out about how he has been a Red Devil fan ever since he was young.
5. Billy Joe Saunders – Celtic
Now while it’s not common, some people like to switch up the clubs they support throughout their life.
This is very much the case for boxer Billy Joe Saunders, who changed to supporting Celtic after meeting a woman who was a fan of the club.
6. Chris Eubank – Newcastle United
Chris Eubank is interestingly a fan of the Magpies, even though he was brought up in London.
Now I don’t know what made him turn to the Newcastle, maybe it was Alan Shearer or the early success in the late ’90s and early 2000s.
Whatever it may be, the WBO middleweight has often gone up to St James Park to do various charity events, so he clearly has the club in his heart.
