Pictures have surfaced of Salt Bae crashing Real Madrid’s celebrations after their 2018 Champions League win to pose for photos with Cristiano Ronaldo, Sergio Ramos and Marcelo.

The celebrity-chasing chef has caused controversy in recent days after he leaped onto the pitch during Argentina’s trophy presentation following their World Cup win against France on Sunday.

Salt Bae, whose real name is Nusret Gokce, stole the spotlight while searching for photos of himself with Lionel Messi and company holding the World Cup trophy.

Messi gave him little attention and seemed annoyed that Salt Bae was trying to make the moment about himself.

But Salt Bae managed to get a photo taken with Argentinian defender Lisandro Martinez, though the Manchester United defender seemed less than pleased to see him.

Ángel Di María was also uncomfortable when Salt Bae refused to go through with it to allow the players a chance to enjoy their victory.

However, Salt Bae’s actions should come as no surprise, as he did the same thing to Messi’s great rival Ronaldo four years ago.

After Madrid defeated Liverpool 3-1 in the Kyiv final, Salt Bae went behind the scenes to track down Ronaldo and Ramos.

Unlike the players from Argentina, the duo from Madrid seemed to enjoy Salt Bae’s company, with Ronaldo laughing and joking with the meat magnate.

Ramos was also in high spirits when he performed Salt Bae’s signature move, pretending to sprinkle salt on the Champions League trophy.

The video ends with Madrid defender Marcelo also miming sprinkling salt, while Salt Bae thumbs up at the camera after having achieved his goal of meeting his idols.

FIFA confirmed on Thursday that it will investigate how Salt Bae entered the field after the World Cup final.

Its rules stipulate that only heads of state and a select group of people, including former World Cup winners, are allowed to touch the trophy, but Salt Bae managed to get his hands on it.

The governing body has promised to take “internal action” once it has established all the facts.

Salt Bae’s relationship with FIFA president Gianni Infantino has been called into question since the incident after video surfaced of the pair together at the former’s steakhouse last year.

Infantino gave Salt Bae a VIP pass to the final, despite the fact that the chef has no ties or ties to football, neither the team nor the tournament itself.
