YouTube star IShowSpeed is renowned for being a Cristiano Ronaldo superfan.

In recent months, the 17-year-old has become a viral sensation for his videos hailing the Portuguese star as the greatest footballer of all time and his ceaseless desire to meet the football icon in person.

Now though, the Twitch streamer has gone a step further and proven his love for Ronaldo by getting a tattoo of his face.

Indeed, the teenager posted a photo on social media, revealing the new ink on his arm. Yet, the resemblance to the five-time Ballon d’Or winner is questionable, to say the least.

A viral clip has surfaced, showing Speed’s reaction to the tattoo and it’s fair to say he’s not best pleased.

Speed reacts to his new tattoo

In the video, Speed can be seen viewing his fresh ink for the first time.

“What do you think man?”, asks the tattoo artist.

“Who is this?”, responds Speed angrily.

“Who is this?”, he repeats again –– this time shouting.

“What the f**k is this?”, he adds.

Speed then moves closer to the camera to show the tattoo, before adding: “Bro, who is this?”

Luckily, the tattoo artist soon informed Speed he wasn’t quite finished yet and the YouTube star was far happier with the end result.

Fans react to Speed’s tattoo?

As you’d expect, Speed’s fans found the tattoo hilarious.

“What on earth is that bro”, said one Twitter user.

“This ain’t Ronaldo,” said another.

“You’re trolling,” added a third.

A fourth echoed the same idea and joked: “Ronaldo from wish.”

Has Speed met Ronaldo?

Speed travelled to Qatar for the 2022 World Cup –– hoping to catch a glimpse of his favourite player.

And while Ronaldo was relegated to the bench for Portugal’s knockout-stage fixtures, Speed did manage to see CR7 come on as a substitute against Switzerland and Morocco.

Though the teenager is still waiting for the chance to meet his idol, AC Milan and Portugal winger Rafael Leao has confirmed that Ronaldo is aware of Speed’s existence.

Leao was a guest on one of Speed’s live stream and the Twitch star’s reaction to learning that Ronaldo has seen his staple “SIUU” celebration is well worth a watch.

When will Ronaldo make Al-Nassr debut?

Ronaldo joined the Saudi-based side Al-Nassr as a free agent last month, having had his Manchester United contract terminated after a controversial interview in which he criticised the club.

The forward is expected to debut on January 22nd against Ettifaq but could feature in a friendly against Paris St-Germain before then, where he’d come up against his rival Lionel Messi.
