Wowzers meowzers!
Who knew he had all those tats underneath that jersey?!?
U.S. goal keeper Tim Howard is showing off all of his ink on the cover of AdWeek and the sexiness is almost too much for us to handle!
The 35-year-old discusses his newfound fame in America, despite being well known across the pond for over 10 years!
Howard explained:
“It├óΓé¼Γäós not overwhelming for me in the sense that I play in England. In England, soccer is just mega├óΓé¼ΓÇ¥it├óΓé¼Γäós huge. I├óΓé¼Γäóve been there for 11 years. I├óΓé¼Γäóve seen firsthand how people react. Obviously, in America, the nonsoccer fans have really taken notice of the sport with the World Cup. That├óΓé¼Γäós been cool to see as an American who is trying to help grow the sport.├óΓé¼┬¥
But now that he’s become a household name, Tim is planning on cashing in on his superstar status! He’s seeking sponsorships here in the States! But it can’t be with just any company though. Tim described who he would get in bed with (in business!), saying:
“It├óΓé¼Γäós important that I├óΓé¼Γäóm a role model, and that the companies that I associate myself with feel the same way about their own images. Those are companies I├óΓé¼Γäód like to be associated with. I try not to and I don├óΓé¼Γäót think I ever have just jumped at any opportunity because a company wanted me. Just because there was money on the table doesn├óΓé¼Γäót mean that I took it.├óΓé¼┬¥
Tim’s a hot commodity right now but he knows that these kinds of endorsements don’t always last a long time. Will his star still be burning bright come 2018 though?
The keeper can’t say whether or not he’ll still be in goal for the U.S. come the next World Cup, but he’s hanging onto hope!
Howard said:
“A lot of things could happen in that time frame. I don├óΓé¼Γäót know the exact answer. I wouldn├óΓé¼Γäót be disappointed if I was part of that run, but there├óΓé¼Γäós a lot of factors that go into that decision.├óΓé¼┬¥
Well, we’re rooting for four more years of the Secretary of Defense!!!
