Fans Are Shocked With What Didier Drogba Has Done to His Hair
By 90min
Fans have reacted with shock following Chelsea legend Didier Drogba's appearance at the World Cup as a BBC pundit.
The former Blues striker was showcasing his skills as an analyst as well as his new hairstyle - or lack of it. Instead of the long, dark locks which he sported whilst playing in the Premier League, the 40-year-old had a shining dome on display or, simply put, his bald head.
Drogba actually decided to shave his head back in December, but it's been a while since he appeared in the Premier League spotlight, and some fans are experiencing their first glimpse at the new hairdo:
can’t believe Drogba is bald. My childhood is officially over.
