One of football’s most iconic hairstyles has tragically been cut down in its prime

It was time for Bacary Sagna to make a change.

After an underwhelming first season with Manchester City, the French defender has made a massive lifestyle change in order to regain the form that saw the club sign him from Arsenal in the first place.

The change doesn’t have anything to do with on-pitch matters (although he has probably tweaked a few things there too), but rather, Sagna has gone for a reverse-Samson and shaved his distinctive bleached cornrows (?).

The French international has opted for a sleeker look that is no doubt designed to increase his speed.

There hasn’t been such a shocking hairstyle change in world football since Steven Gerrard switched from a two-blade all over to a two-blade on the back and sides with a short scissors on top.
