Franck Ribery showcases horrendous new haircut in Liverpool clash

Franck Ribery shows off horrendous haircut prior to Champions League clash with Liverpool.

It’s an, erm, interesting take on the classic back and sides

Thirty-five is a precarious age when it comes to hair. Many men are worried about losing it – many do. It’s a curse based purely on chance; some get lucky, some don’t.

One of the lucky ones, for reasons I can’t comprehend after seeing this image, is Franck Ribery.

Ahead of Bayern’s Champions League last 16 clash with Liverpool at the Allianz Arena, father-of-four Ribery decided to shave a number 7 into the side of his barnet.

It’s the sort of thing a child might do, and even then that child would probably be laughed at by all of their child friends.

It caps off a fine few months for Ribery.

In January, the Frenchman blasted fans who questioned him spending £1,000 on a gold steak at Salt Bae’s restaurant in Dubai, before moaning about failing to win the Ballon d’Or in 2013 – again.

Still, if both of those episodes were embarrassing, they’re still nothing compared to this latest, terrible act.
