Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski got his hair dyed and uploaded a picture on Instagram to show the new look, but fans are confused over the exact colour of his locks as they seem to be a mix between blonde and brown.
Lewandowski has begun the season in fine form and his goals tally has already gone into double digits for the 2017-18 season. The 29-year-old Pole has scored 15 times in 17 games (all competitions).
The former Borussia Dortmund man has never really experimented with his hair, unlike most modern footballers, and his latest look has got Bayern teammate Arturo Vidal in splits, from the looks of his comment:

Bayern’s season got off to a rocky start as they parted ways with manager Carlo Ancelotti after a few poor results, most notably an embarrassing 3-0 loss at the hands of Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Champions League.
They have persuaded their treble-winning manager—Jupp Heyneckes— to come out of retirement and the results have been encouraging as Die Bayern have won all seven games under the 71-year-old.
Their last game before the final international break of the year ensued was a big one, a Der Klassiker clash with Borussia Dortmund and Bayern trumped their arch-rivals 3-1 away to lift some of the gloom that had descended on the Allianz Arena in the early stages of the season.
The Bavarians are topping the Bundesliga table with a points tally of 26 from 11 matches, with RB Leipzig four points behind in second place while third-ranked Borussia Dortmund are a bit further back with 20 points.
Bayern take on Augsburg 10th-placed Augsburg on Saturday in the first game after the international break.
For the first time in Bundesliga history, three bottom-placed teams enter the final matchday level on points as Wolfsburg, Heidenheim and St. Pauli fight to avoid relegation and secure the playoff spot in a dramatic survival showdown.
Bayern Munich eased to a 4-1 victory over Borussia Monchengladbach in the Bundesliga at the Allianz Arena on Friday, overcoming several absences and heavy rotation to take control of the match.
FC Bayern Munich were cruelly denied the Bundesliga title by a late 94th-minute stoppage time equaliser by Yussuf Poulsen which saw their title celebrations delayed courtesy of a 3-3 draw by RB Leipzig in a thrilling encounter at the Red Bull Arena.
