Sad news for all you Cristiano Ronaldo fans out there – the soccer stud is being replaced as the male face of Emporio Armani Underwear and Armani Jeans. The next hot guy you’ll be able to see in his underwear is none other than tennis star Rafael Nadal. It seems like Armani is on something of a sports kick, as Cristiano Ronaldo originally replaced his fellow footballer David Beckham – and now the fashion house will add the world’s number one tennis player to their list of spokesmodels. Though not perhaps as ab-tastic as either Ronaldo or Beckham, I like the choice of Nadal’s more naturally buff look, rather than the over-the-top ripped bodies the soccer sensations have. The first campaign featuring Nadal will be out in February, so you tennis fans don’t have too long to wait for your first glimpse of him in his skivvies.
