CONOR McGREGOR was asked to leave the Emirates pitch after Arsenal’s win over Paris Saint-Germain.
The UFC superstar, 36, was in attendance at the Gunners’ 2-0 victory in the Champions League on Tuesday night.
After the game he went onto the field and posed for photos with Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka.
He was even seen jokingly practicing some MMA moves on Arsenal and England star Saka.
However, The Irish Mirror are now reporting McGregor was not an official guest at the stadium.
He had acquired a ticket through a third-party source, before he left his seat and breezed onto the pitch at full-time.
After several minutes on the turf, security told him to get off the field.
And McGregor’s presence at the game was made even more bizarre due to the fact he is a Manchester United fan.
In 2022, he told The Red Devils’ website: “I was more a player than a watcher back then [when I was a child], but Manchester United was my team.
“It was only the other day I came across an old picture of myself wearing that infamous grey United jersey, which I bought with my [First Holy] Communion money at eight years of age.

“I see my son when I look at that photo. I’d love to know where it is now. A truly ‘Notorious’ football jersey!
“I was attracted to the success and winning mentality of the club and people surrounded by United. Irish legends like Denis Irwin and Roy Keane were dedicated to their craft and had that winning mentality.”
McGregor confirmed last month his return to the octagon will come in 2025 – nearly four years since he broke his leg in his last fight against Dustin Poirier.
He told DAZN: “It will be 2025. We will see.
“My opponent that I had scheduled… it is what it is. I take it on board and rock on.
“My job is to go to the gym and be in shape, whenever it is and wherever it is. I will be 100 per cent ready.”
