Serena Williams’ former coach Rene Stubbs recently showed off an outfit she wore at the soccer star’s retirement celebration that bore a striking resemblance to Megan Rapinoe’s outfit.

Rapinoe previously announced plans to retire after the 2023 National Women’s Soccer League season. She said that the 2023 Women’s World Cup will be her last time participating in this prestigious event. She also announced that she will end her club career with OL Reign at the end of the season.

Megan Rapinoe’s remarkable career has included two World Cups and an Olympic gold medal.

The football star’s club team OL Reign held a celebration for the football star on Friday, October 6, in front of a record-breaking 34,130 National Women’s Football League fans. It was a striking sight and many supporters donated pink wigs in her honor.

The 38-year-old has been an integral part of the Reign since 2013, making her one of only five players in the entire league to remain loyal to their respective teams since the NWSL’s inception.

Megan Rapinoe played 114 regular season games for the Reign, scoring an impressive 49 goals during that time. Her upcoming game will be on the road against the Chicago Red Stars.

After Friday’s game, Rapinoe’s friends from the sports and entertainment world gathered to celebrate her retirement. Rene Stubbs also attended the party.

Stubbs shared a photo on social media of her and Rapinoe, both wearing strikingly similar outfits — an elegant white halter top with matching necklaces.

“We got the memo @mrapinoe,” Stubbs captioned her Instagram Story.
