What KSI and Logan Paul did at Prime event in Australia that Arsenal fans will love

Thousands of fans congregated in the streets of Sydney, Australia to catch a glimpse of Logan Paul and KSI. The two entertainment stars own Prime which is a key sponsor for Arsenal after the club announced a partnership with the energy drink company last year.

The streets of north Sydney were packed in an attempt to meet the former boxing rivals, and with the promise of Prime for the first 2,000 fans. Olajide Olatunji, more commonly known as JJ or KSI, is a huge fan of the Gunners and will be very happy with how Mikel Arteta's team are performing this season as they continue their Premier League title challenge against Manchester City.

The north Londoners are preparing for one of the biggest games in their history this week when they welcome City to the Emirates Stadium in a huge clash that could see the momentum swing in the title race. Fans will love what KSI did during mid-interview with Australian broadcaster Channel 9 as the Englishman grabbed a megaphone to yell out an infamous chant aimed at north London rivals Tottenham.

During the event in Sydney, KSI led the chant as he bellowed: “What do we think of Tottenham?" The crowd responded with the chant: “S**t!”

KSI continued: “What do we think of s**t?” And of course, the inevitable reply came: “Tottenham!”

The social media influencer and YouTube star could not help but take the chance to aim a dig at Arsenal's fierce rivals given the Gunners' impressive performances this season. Following the announcement of Arsenal and Prime's partnership last year, KSI said: “Honestly, I can’t believe it, this is a childhood dream of mine.

"From watching Arsenal tear up the Premier League in the early 2000s to now being associated with Arsenal officially with PRIME, it’s a dream come true and I’m still pinching myself! This is a huge moment and I’m so glad it’s with the team I support.”

Arsenal’s Chief Commercial Officer, Juliet Slot, added: “We are always looking to join forces with new, exciting and forward-thinking brands. PRIME falls comfortably into that category, with a product and founders at the forefront of modern culture.

"KSI is a lifelong Arsenal supporter and it’s fantastic we can keep this in the family. I’m sure our supporters will love the drink and I’m excited to see the fun ways we will bring this partnership to life."

As part of the sponsorship deal, KSI has recently been involved in a training challenge with the likes of Eddie Nketiah and Gabriel Martinelli. The English entertainment star will hope his beloved Gunners can continue their Premier League title charge with a win against City on Wednesday as they look to extend their advantage at the top of the table.
