A day before their final group clash against Mexico where a win would see them progress to the knockout stages, a bikini-wearing Ecuador fan was spotted outside Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas and a video of the gorgeous supporter was posted by Sarmiento on X where he thanked her for the support as he wrote: “Really appreciate all of the support from our fans out at the Copa America”.
Sporting an Ecuador-themed bikini with fishnet tights and football socks, the post on the social media platform quickly went viral and has been seen over 3.1million times.

The Prem star certainly has a loyal following with many of his fans attempting to big him up with outlandish claims with one saying: “Jeremy mate, thanks for the Lamborghini and for saving me from being mugged by single-handedly fighting off ten men! Appreciate you!”
