Cristiano Ronaldo has not only left an indelible mark on the sport but has also become a source of inspiration for countless individuals around the world. Among his admirers are Manchester United and English international star Ella Toone. This 24-year-old has found immense inspiration in Ronaldo, leading her to establish her own brand that reflects the influence of the Portuguese superstar.

Ella Toone, showing her ambitious nature, has become the first England women’s soccer player to trademark her name. Following this, she released her brand ET7. The name-bearing striking resemblance to Cristiano Ronaldo’s trademark ‘CR7’ is not just a mere coincidence.

“It’s nice to try and use my platform as best as I can to inspire young girls and boys,” concluded the Lionesses star. It is a lovely cause and one that the 38-year-old helped inspire. Toone is just one example of the numerous individuals who have found inspiration from Cristiano Ronaldo. Surprisingly, even Manchester City striker Erling Haaland drew motivation from his extraordinary career.
