Meet the Champions League final WAGS supporting Liverpool and Real Madrid

From a devout Christian doctor who's a goodwill ambassador for the WHO to a member of one of the world's must successful girl groups, the wives and partners of the Champions League finalists make for an impressive bunch.

Liverpool taken on Real Madrid in Paris on Saturday night with the Reds looking for their seventh win in the competition, while Real, who are the most successful team in Champions League history, will hope to add to their 13 titles.

And with stunning models, gorgeous influencers, proud parents and even a doctor all in the mix, there's sure to be no shortage of support for the different teams.

While some might be recognisable for their own career achievements, such as popstar Perrie Edwards who is dating Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, others live a much more low-key life -  including Thiago Alcantara's wife Julia Vigas whose focus is on running her family hotel business.

Here's the WAGS who'll be cheering their husbands and boyfriends on from the stands on Saturday...

'And even if you are physically healthy, eating disorders are mental illnesses that take years to heal. Years of therapy, of acceptance and control.'

Federico has been swept up in controversy ahead of the match at the weekend as he  ratcheted up the tension, claiming Mohamed Salah 'disrespected' the Spanish side.

After beating Villarreal in the semi-final, the Egyptian had said he would rather play Real than their last-four opponents Manchester City in the final because he wanted to avenge their final defeat against the same opponents in 2018.

Salah told BT Sport in May: 'I want to play Madrid, I have to be honest. City are a really tough team, we played against them a few times this season, but I think if you ask me personally, I would prefer Madrid.

'Because we lost in the final against them, I want to play against them, and hopefully win against them.'

But Valverde told Marca that the forward's comments were disrespectful to the club's badge and its players, and insisted they would serve as extra motivation for the final.

He said: 'Obviously they're words that everyone can take however they want. I'm his opponent and it's like disrespecting the Real Madrid badge, the players...

'The only thing we must do is give our best, try to show why we're in the final and let's hope we can give another trophy to the fans and to Real Madrid.'
