Prince William claims that Prince Louis is still in charge of figuring it all out, and there appears to be a little football indolence in the Wales household.

The Prince of Wales revealed that his youngest son, who is currently on five, is still unsure about choosing his favorite football team when he visited the football-skills-35266207″ target=”_blank” aria-label=”Leith Community CentreLink opens in a new tab.” tabindex=”0″>Leith Community Centre in Edinburgh on May 21.

William, 42, said during a conversation with a young local, “My youngest at the moment says he supports five different football teams,” according to Hello! magazine .

William had popped in to mark a new partnership between The Royal Foundation and Street Soccer Scotland, an organisation that uses the beautiful game to bring people together and boost community well-being.

The Prince, a long-time supporter of the sport, addressed the issue with how his children are faring when choosing their team.

It seems Louis, seven, still hasn’t made up his mind. Erin, aged nine, presented William with a handmade Aston Villa poster and asked which team she supported. When she admitted she had more than one, William smiled and said Louis is doing exactly the same, backing “five different” clubs.

It’s no secret that William is a die-hard Aston Villa fan. He’s even passed his passion down to his eldest son, George, 11. The pair were spotted together at two Villa matches this spring, with William confirming to sports journalist Neil Moxley that George is indeed “part of the pride”.

However, the royal father-of-three doesn’t anticipate that every one of his children will follow his example. I’m hoping that they will all eventually form their own teams. In a surprisingly sparse interview with The Sun in March, he claimed that not everyone who loves Villa fans. Although I’m trying not to be biased, they obviously notice my passion for the sport and watch my matches. Williams added, “I’m trying to spread a little love a little bit.”

Although George has been seen at games and all three of the children appear to be Villa fans, it seems like there is some back-and-forth play. They do have Villa shirts and ask that I accompany them to games, but they also have other shirts. Williams also admitted that there has been some courting going on with other managers, “William revealed cheekily.

And it’s not just talk. The Prince recently showed off his own football skills at Leith Community Centre, taking to the pitch in a suit as part of his official visit. Earlier in the week, he also presented the FA Cup trophy to Crystal Palace at Wembley, fulfilling his duties as Patron of the Football Association.

The Royal Foundation has pledged financial support to revitalize Leith Community Centre and support a “Leith United” coalition that aims to secure long-term funding for grassroots community spaces as part of its new initiative.
