Football Player Illustration Comic Style

I need unique illustration of a football player made out of pictures. Important is that they don't directly refer to the original picture because I don't hold any picture rights or licenses. It should be attractive for kids and parents, not too realistic more childish and like a cartoon. It is important that it is possible to recognize the famous player because of typical attributes like hair or beard. I attached pictures of the footballer and two styles of illustrations I like. If I'm happy with this illustration there is the chance for long-term collaboration since I'm actually looking for an illustrator for a book project (around 30 illustrations).
