Ten Toes signs Maro Itoje to talent roster

Ten Toes has signed Saracens and England star Maro Itoje to its talent roster.

The London-based agency will be responsible for growing the rugby union standout’s personal brand off the pitch.

Itoje, who has won three European Champions Cups and five Premiership Rugby titles with Saracens, was previously represented by Roc Nation since 2020.

Alongside his on-field success, the 30-year-old has founded the Akoje Gallery, which focuses on artists from Africa, the Caribbean, and the diaspora.

The forward has also launched the Pearl Fund initiative, which helps fund investments into education of children in Nigeria.

Itoje joins Ten Toes’ athlete roster that includes Three Lions captain Harry Kane, England Lioness Alessia Russo, Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes, Arsenal star Martin Ødegaard, and Danish women’s footballer Pernille Harder.

“Maro is more than just a rugby player,” said Ben Weisfeld, CEO and Founder at Ten Toes.

“He has so many strings to his bow, and we can’t wait to build on the foundations he’s already built and continue to grow his profile with fans and new partners alike.”

Itoje added, “I’m very excited to partner with Ten Toes on this next chapter.

“Ben and the team’s work has been very impressive and I like the way they go about their business.

“I’m looking forward to working alongside them to help achieve my goals and aspirations.”
