Pope Leo won’t be the only VIP in Spain this weekend, but he knows it all too well.

Speaking to reporters aboard the papal plane on June 6, Leo admitted he faces stiff competition from Bad Bunny as his apostolic journey coincides with various concerts at Madrid’s Riyadh Air Metropolitano.

“If they were faced with the question, ‘Do you want to see Bad Bunny or do you want to see the Pope?’ I think a lot of people would go see Bad Bunny,” Leo said. “But I think there will be some people who will come to see the Pope. That’s saying something, too.”

Saturday, June 6th’s performance is one of the few remaining concerts on the Puerto Rican artist’s Spanish tour, which officially ends on June 15th after 10 performances in the country’s capital.

Ahead of the trip, Cardinal José Cobo Cano, the Archbishop of Madrid, hinted that the “TURiSTA” singer might have some kind of meeting with Leo.

Leo also said he was “very happy” to hear reports of an increase in converts to Catholicism, especially among young people, according to CNN.

“Young people who want something more often have grown up without a spiritual dimension to their lives, so they find themselves feeling empty, lacking a sense of meaning,” he says.

Pope Leo says he will support the US at the World Cup

When asked which team he is rooting for in the World Cup, Leo admitted that he was rooting for the United States, and also revealed that he happened to be a supporter of the Real Madrid or Barcelona soccer teams.

“The Pope is for all teams, Prevost is for Real Madrid,” he told reporters, referring to himself by name, before the Pope was elected.

According to CNN, Leo will hold a meeting with young people during his visit at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium, home of soccer club Real Madrid.
