WAGs of the Club World Cup: The Stunning Partners of Football's Elite

The sun-kissed fields of the United States are hosting the most anticipated tournament in football, and with it comes a cavalcade of stunning WAGs (wives and girlfriends) ready to cheer on their handsome beaus. In this exclusive report for thescholarlynote.com, we delve into the lives of these captivating women who make the beautiful game even more fascinating.

Maya Jama: The Love Island Star Who's Not in the USA

Lionel Messi's wife, Antonela Roccuzzo, is cheering him on in the newly-expanded tournament

First up, we have Maya Jama, the gorgeous TV presenter and model, who's been dating Manchester City star Ruben Dias since the beginning of the year. Although she's not physically present to support her beau at the Club World Cup, Jama has been keeping a close eye on the action from afar. With her busy schedule hosting Love Island, Jama has had to make sacrifices, but it seems love is still in the air for this gorgeous couple.

Isabel Haugseng Johansen: The Mother of Three Who's Rooting for Erling Haaland

Next up, we have Isabel Haugseng Johansen, the stunning partner of Manchester City star Erling Haaland. With their first child born just a few months ago, it's no surprise that Johansen is opting to stay at home and care for their little one instead of jetting off to the USA. As Haaland takes the pitch by storm, Johansen is cheering him on from afar, no doubt keeping an eye out for any adorable baby moments.

Connie Grace: The Manchester Beauty Who's Got Her Man's Back

Another WAG making waves is Connie Grace, the lovely partner of Chelsea star Cole Palmer. This stunning brunette has been spotted cheering her man on at matches and has even shared a sweet snap of the two together on social media. With her busy schedule as an influencer and nail salon owner, it's no wonder she's got her priorities straight – supporting Palmer at the Club World Cup.

Aine May Kennedy: The Irish Model Who's Won Conor Gallagher's Heart

Jama has reportedly been dating Manchester City star Ruben Dias for a few months

Ireland's own Aine May Kennedy is the gorgeous partner of Atletico Madrid star Conor Gallagher. With their shared love for Ed Sheeran (they even met him backstage at one of his concerts!), it's clear that these two are meant to be. As Gallagher takes on the best teams in the world, Kennedy will be right by his side, cheering him on with her trademark Irish charm.

Ashlyn Castro: The American Model Who's Got Jude Bellingham's Heart

Last but not least, we have Ashlyn Castro, the stunning American model who's caught the eye of Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham. With her extensive modeling portfolio and high-profile relationships in the past (hello, Terance Mann!), it's no surprise that this siren is making waves at the Club World Cup. As Bellingham takes to the pitch with his Real Madrid teammates, Castro will be right behind him, cheering him on with her trademark sass.

However, she is not in the US for the Club World Cup as she is hosting Love Island
