THE social media star dubbed “Denmark’s sexiest fan” is backing her boys to do big things at the World Cup… and not just because of Christian Eriksen.
Model Katrina Maria regularly posts sizzling snaps in her Manchester United gear – cheering on Eriksen and Co at club level.
But on the international stage, it isn’t just about the magnificent attacking midfielder.
Katrina hails from the Faroe Islands – which are part of the Kingdom of Denmark.
And she moved to Denmark itself in around 2014 – deeming it only right to support them ever since.
That Eriksen has joined her beloved United, however, is a happy coincidence.

Explaining her Red Devils love affair to the Daily Star in 2018, she said: “I have a bunch of friends who were watching the games and I started hanging out with them and started watching.
“Also my family are United fans. I think it is the thrill of it and just so exciting. I just love the atmosphere, it is like a big family.”
Asked for her favourite moment as a fan, she added: “I think 2013 when they last won the title, that was a great moment. I was with my friends and went out partying, we were having a really great night.”
Katrina has gathered over 100,000 Instagram followers, with many of them fellow United and Denmark fans.
