Abstract

With the worldwide popularity of various sports, the commercial value of many athletes is widely recognized. Athletes expand their influence beyond sports by participating in various social and business activities. Unlike traditional stars, athletes carry more cultural significance and ideological value. Their achievements in sports events make them one of the country's symbols. Commercial partnerships between brands and athletes are becoming more widespread. In the marketing activities in which athletes participate, athletes are not only considered as the carriers of advertising or marketing but more importantly, the brand image can be established in the eyes of consumers based on the athletes' own image, fashion sense and personal style. This paper will adopt the quantitative research method to collect young consumers' attitudes towards athletes to explore the concept of athletes' brand image construction and its influence on consumers.
