Eleonora Incardona will be one of the major stars in the world of media present at the 2026 World Cup. The beautiful Italian DAZN reporter has taken a few days off before the tournament, which Italy will miss after failing to qualify for the third consecutive time.
With the start of the World Cup just a few days away now, let’s go to El Gouna, Red Sea. That’s where Eleonora, who had no problem shoving haters into lockers for calling her coverage last summer for DAZN Italy too sexy, is putting the finishing touches on a beach vacation. She’s burned, she’s happy, she looks as prepared as one can be for another invasion of the U.S. that’s going to once again drive home how much fun sports are supposed to be.
Eleonora has been preparing for the World Cup by spending time in Egypt with AC Milan midfielder and boyfriend Samuele Ricci. The brunette was spotted riding camels and quad biking through the desert while on her travels. And Eleonora treated her 1.4 million Instagram followers to photos in a tiny bikini as she soaked up the sun.
In addition to the bikini photos, she also posted images from her adventure in the Egyptian desert, dressed for the occasion with a turban, a black tank top, and white trousers.
The broadcaster’s fans rushed into the comments section straight after the snaps were uploaded. One wrote: “Extraordinary goddess.” Another added: “Absolute perfection.” A third chimed in: “Spectacular.” A fourth noted: “Gorgeous princess.”
The TV host featured regularly during DAZN’s coverage of Serie A throughout the 2025-26 season. And she is dating Italy midfielder Ricci, 24, who sealed a £20million move to AC Milan last year. That has led to Eleonora finding it tough to remain impartial when covering the San Siro giants. She was recently dubbed “the most beautiful woman in Italy” after sharing snaps in a glitzy black dress.
There’s no confusion about what Eleonora Incardona is bringing to the table during the World Cup. She’s going to bring energy, she’s going to have a great time, and even if you’re not into soccer at all, you’re going to check in on her to see what she’s up to throughout the tournament. That’s how you go from a star in the soccer world to a much bigger pop culture success.
