Music superstar Harry Styles has been spotted in public at an unlikely venue – Luton Town’s Kenilworth Road stadium.

The former One Direction star, 30, is currently taking a break from music after a lengthy world tour and is in Hertfordshire this afternoon to watch his beloved football team, Manchester United.

Styles did not have to wait very long for the opening goal as United’s Rasmus Hojlund opened the scoring inside the first minute to score for the sixth successive Premier League match in a row.

And United were 2-0 up after just six minutes as Hojlund doubled his and his side’s tally as he diverted Alejandro Garnacho’s volley into the back of the net, before Carlton Morris pulled a goal back for the hosts inside a frenetic opening 15 minutes.

Harry Styles and Mick Harford – the duo we didn’t know we needed

Styles is watching the game from the directors’ box alongside Luton’s longstanding chief recruitment officer Mick Harford.

And fans couldn’t get enough of the fact he was watching the game with Harford, who was known for being a hardman during his 21-year-old playing career.

Bookmaker Paddy Power tweeted: “Harry Styles and Mick Harford sharing a pack of Trebor Mints at Kenilworth Road > Taylor Swift and Ice Spice drinking at the Super Bowl.”

Another fan tweeted: “HARRY STYLES is at Luton. Let that sink in,” and another added: “Imagine a Luton fan: falls into coma after losing 5-1 to Gateshead in 2013. Wakes up in 2024 to see Harry Styles on Sky Sports getting ready to watch Luton Vs Man United.”
