Zlatan Ibrahimovic reveals bizarre BALD look on social media, leaves fans in splits

AC Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has been one of the major reasons for the team's sudden rise in Serie A this season. The former Swedish forward has been delivering scintillating performances on the field ever since his move to San Siro in January last year. He has been making headlines for his on-field exploits, while also entertaining his fans with social media antics. The 39-year-old has now come up with a new look, but fans have their doubts.

Is Ibrahimovic bald? Striker poses no-hair image 

Prior to the game against Atalanta, Ibrahimovic posted a story on his official Instagram account. Although it is completely normal for him to post his training images, the new look grabbed eyeballs. The former Manchester United star appeared to don a no-hair look, suggesting he had shaved off his hair completely. 

Ibrahimovic has maintained a ponytail ever since his rise as a player more than a decade ago. Unlike other football superstars, the AC Milan forward hasn't experimented much with his hairstyle. But the recent change in his look has the fans talking, most of whom have their own doubts about the picture.

Atalanta hammer AC Milan with Ibrahimovic helpless 

Despite a major injury which saw him sit out on the sidelines for several weeks, Ibrahimovic has already struck 12 times in eight Serie A starts this season. Juventus ace Cristiano Ronaldo has outdone him in the competition. But considering the former Sweden striker's age, he has proven to be a decent business for the San Siro outfit. 

But Ibrahimovic could not help his side escape a humiliating defeat against Atalanta last Saturday. He managed to make it to the starting line up against Atalanta, playing the complete duration of the game. But his presence wasn't sufficient for Stefano Pioli's men to ensure a positive result from the game.
