Saka, Ødegaard and Son lead stars at London Fashion Week،
Footballers from both sides of the Premier League's North London Division put their rivalry aside to attend one of London Fashion Week's most prestigious shows.
With club allegiances aside for the evening, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur players were spotted mingling convivially at the Burberry Autumn/Winter 2024 event which took place outdoors under a huge marquee in Victoria Park, London.
Fresh from scoring in Saturday's 5-0 defeat to Burnley, Arsenal duo Bukayo Saka and Martin Ødegaard were in attendance, with the former opting for a thick sheepskin coat to keep the cold at bay.
Ødegaard opted for a dark ensemble consisting of a black Harrington jacket and a sensible knit zip-up sweater underneath.
While waiting for the show to begin, Saka was seen posing for photos on the green carpet with rapper Central CEE and actor Barry Keoghan, whose star is on the rise after leading roles in “The Banshees of Inisherin” and “Saltburn”.
Tottenham were represented by players past and present as club captain Son Heung-Min led the line, looking every inch the catwalk superstar with his stylish raincoat and slicked-back hair.
Both Son and Saka are brand ambassadors for Burberry, and the couple even fronted the brand's spring/summer campaign last year. The South Korean star was ably flanked by former Spurs heroes Gareth Bale and Dele Alli, who were in attendance with their partners.
A year after his retirement, Bale was seen in the front row alongside his wife, Emma Rhys-Jones, as well as Ødegaard and Chelsea defender Ben Chilwell, who proudly wore his club colors in the form of a very elegant sleeveless vest.
Chilwell was also seen chatting to former Tottenham and England midfielder Alli, now at Everton, who had bleached his hair and donned his finest fatigues for the occasion.
The football cohort then rubbed shoulders with a host of celebrities such as actors Olivia Colman and Joanna Lumley, models Naomi Campbell and Cara Delevingne, and even titans of the British rap scene Dizzee Rascal, Kano and Skepta.
