The fashion world loves a model with a celebrity lineage, and it looks like Wilhelmina Models has signed the next big face with a famous bloodline. The agency has added Biaggio Ali Walsh, the grandson of the late, great Muhammad Ali, son of Rasheeda Ali Walsh.

Yesterday the 17-year-old high school football player tweeted about his big new gig. “So excited that I signed with Wilhelmina Models! Thank you and I’m excited to work with you guys!” Walsh is a star running back on his football team at Bishop Gorman High School in Las Vegas — not to mention a member of his prom court. Now, with this modeling contract, he has ticked off all the boxes required to qualify as the ultimate high school heartthrob.

The contract with Wilhelmina is definitely a spot of good news after the recent passing of his grandfather, to whom Ali Walsh dedicated his senior year of football.

Could Biaggio Ali Walsh be the next Anwar Hadid or Dylan Jagger Lee? Only time will tell, but the odds certainly seem to be in his favor.
