Changing names of their loved ones

A football mad Australian man named his daughter 'LANESRA' in honour of the club he supports. The name is Premier League team Arsenal, spelled backwards. Another example of a fan going to extreme lengths to showcase his love is Cardiff City supporter, Paul Woodman, who named his company Cardiff City Tigers.

However, it is not just fans who name things they love based on their favourite club/players, but also professional footballers who do the same. Spanish midfielder Santi Cazorla named his dog Zlatan Ibrahimovic while Granada's Javi Marquez named his newborn son Luka Modric in honour of his favourite player.

It is clear that the fans' love for their favourites transcends the sport and has an impact in their personal lives too.
