Reece James with Siya Kolisi
Chelsea star Reece James accompanied his close friend and Springboks captain Siya Kolisi to watch the Parisian derby between Racing 92 and Stade Français Paris.
Kolisi has crossed over into the football world plenty of time since captaining the Springboks to their third World Cup triumph in 2019, including a budding relationship with Liverpool's head coach Jurgen Klopp.
The rugby superstar has also gotten close to former Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson, as well as Chelsea's Ivorian legend Didier Drogba.
James, who was appointed as Chelsea's club captain by Mauricio Pochettino at the start of the 2023/24 season, appeared to have been shadowing his friend Kolisi on Saturday.
