Striker turns into Ronaldo after getting Germany's No 9 shirt for the Cup
Ronaldo surprised the football world by taking the field for the Brazilian National Team in the 2002 World Cup final against Germany sporting the "Cascão" haircut.
And wouldn’t you know it, a GERMAN striker decided to “take inspiration” from the Phenomenon?
The squad numbers for the four-time world champion for the tournament were revealed this Tuesday (26).
And call-up Jamie Leweling was given the No. 9 shirt.
That was followed by him “turning into” the former Brazilian striker on his Instagram profile.

Ronaldo made history in that final by beating Oliver Kahn twice and securing what remains, to this day, Brazil’s most recent World Cup title.
Leweling, 25, enjoyed the best season of his career: he scored 11 goals and provided 12 assists across 50 matches.
He helped Stuttgart secure a place in next season’s Champions League and reach the German Cup final, which was won by Bayern.
The German side also reached the Europa League round of 16.
He turned professional at Greuther Fürth and has been at Stuttgart since the 2023/24 season. He initially joined on loan from Union Berlin and was later signed permanently.
