Ella Toone Aims to Emulate Ronaldo and Beckham’s No. 7 Legacy
Ella Toone, the Manchester United and England forward, is setting her sights on following in the footsteps of football legends Cristiano Ronaldo and David Beckham by wearing the iconic No. 7 shirt. Toone expressed her ambition to emulate the legacy of these stars, stating, "It's a number that has been worn by some of the best players in the world, and I want to do it justice."
The 23-year-old Lioness, who has been a key player for both club and country, believes that wearing the No. 7 shirt is a symbol of her aspirations to reach the highest levels of the game. Her performances have already drawn comparisons to the likes of Ronaldo and Beckham, and Toone is determined to continue her development and make her mark on the sport.
Toone's ambition comes at a time when women's football is experiencing a surge in popularity and recognition. She believes that the Women's Super League (WSL) deserves more credit for the quality of football and the impact it is having on the sport as a whole. "We're pushing the boundaries and showing that women's football can be just as exciting and competitive as the men's game," she said.
