Galatasaray and Digital Fan Leo
The Super League team Galatasaray’s Argentine football player Mauro Icardi expressed his views to Leo, the digital fan of the yellow-red club. Although no resources of the club were used for the project implemented in October 2023, Leo does not want the fans to reach into their pockets.
On the other hand, he works hard to reach thousands of people on social media with his two singles, drawings, and vlogs, generating revenue for the club. Recently visiting Florya, Leo met with the football stars of the Yellow-Reds, Fernando Muslera, Lucas Torreira, and Mauro Icardi. Having received advice from experienced players, Leo will also share pictures of Florya, Galatasaray’s home, on his social media accounts. He is not an Icardi fan because he represents Galatasaray more than Icardi.
The Influence of Technology on Football
The development of technology continues to have significant impacts on football and other sports worldwide. Galatasaray, one of the clubs that closely follows not only the development of sports and athletes but also other innovations in the technological field, announced the world’s first digital fan, Leo, a few months ago.
Leo’s Activities
Leo, brought to life with the help of artificial intelligence, makes music, draws, meets with the leaders of the Galatasaray community, and conducts interviews. Producing entertaining content about Galatasaray, Leo is also working to create a sustainable source of income for the yellow-red club.
Mauro Icardi’s Contributions to Galatasaray
„I represent Galatasaray more than Icardi“ In his interview with Leo, Icardi emphasized that he represents not only himself but also Galatasaray. The Argentine striker said, „Most of the younger generation are Galatasaray fans, not Icardi fans, because I represent Galatasaray more than Icardi.“
Becoming a favorite among children, Icardi also said, „It makes me very happy that thanks to my goals and our championship last year, we were able to turn many children into Galatasaray players.“ Of course, that makes me very happy too. Galatasaray is at the top. -T24
