You can tell Lionel Messi means business – he’s shaved his beard off. The Argentine striker bagged a hat-trick against PSV midweek and now is gearing up for the match up with Girona.
But he’s doing it with a new sleek style after shedding the beard he’s been sporting since the historic Barcelona treble of 2015. But many are hoping a clean shaven Messi can return the Nou Camp side to the pinnacle they were at when he was last as smooth as the proverbial.
One bullish fan tweeted: “Messi shaved his beard, the king ain’t messing around, the UCL is returning to Barça.”
