NFL superstar Patrick Mahomes, along with his wife Brittany, is hoping to tempt Taylor Swift into watching a NWSL fixture involving the KC Current.

WHAT HAPPENED?

The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, who has savoured another Super Bowl triumph in 2024, forms part of the ownership group at the newly-constructed CPKC Stadium – the first women’s professional sports venue in the world.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Mahomes became the first American Football player to acquire a stake in a NWSL franchise back in 2023 and has high hopes for the team’s future. He has been joined in that venture by partner Brittany, who can regularly be spotted sitting alongside pop icon Swift at Chiefs games – as she supports boyfriend Travis Kelce.

WHAT MAHOMES SAID

Mahomes is hoping to make the most of that friendship, telling ESPN: “We might get her here at some point, she’s a busy woman and Travis is a busy guy. So, maybe during season or something like that we’ll get her out to a Kansas City Current game. She loves supporting Kansas City just like we do and I’m sure Brittany can nudge her and get her here pretty easily.”

Brittany added: “That’s definitely on me. I’ll work on it, I will work on it.”

WHAT NEXT?

The Current opened their 2024 campaign with a thrilling 5-4 victory over the Portland Thorns. They have 12 more home games to take in this season, meaning that Swift could be in attendance at some point if a window can be found in her Eras International Tour schedule.
