Germany's Jamie Leweling gets signed Ronaldo shirt, teases tribute haircut

Leweling recently changed his Instagram profile picture to an AI-edited image showing himself with Ronaldo's iconic 'triangle fringe' – the unusual haircut Ronaldo wore during Brazil's victorious 2002 World Cup campaign. The image gained widespread attention online and eventually reached Ronaldo.

According to VfB Stuttgart forward Leweling, a Brazilian reporter delivered the signed shirt to him. He proudly displayed the jersey at a Germany press conference on Tuesday, saying he was delighted that "the real Ronaldo" had sent it.
