Zlatan Ibrahimovic's surprising new look: Is it real or a joke?

Zlatan Ibrahimovic surprised his social media followers on Sunday by posting a photo of his new shaved head.

The AC Milan striker's long hair and ponytail is known around the world, but it seems as though he has opted to try a new look.

Perhaps Ibrahimovic opted to change things after being on the pitch during the Rossoneri's 3-0 defeat at home to Atalanta on Saturday, so for Sunday's training session he was seen without any hair.

Although, it should not be ruled out that the 39-year-old is playing a joke on us all and has used an app to pretend like he is bald. You never know with Zlatan.

Ibrahimovic also had a coming together with Atalanta striker Duvan Zapata after Saturday's defeat, with the Swede looking to get under the Colombian's skin by comparing their goalscoring records.
