HE was a top-class flop – thanks to his cocaine disgrace.
But now he has a top-class head of hair – thanks to a new mane!

45-year-old former Chelsea striker Adrian Mutu has proudly revealed the results of a hair transplant.
The Romanian, who won 77 caps for his country, stood out for his shaved head during a controversial period in the Premier League.
But now he is “very happy” and has a magnificent head of hair combed upwards with lots of bounce.
Mutu’s brief stint at Stamford Bridge ended in September 2004 after he tested positive for cocaine.
The Blues sacked him and he was ordered to pay them almost £15 million.
Mutu has lost all attempts to prevent the payment of this huge sum.
And the final blow came in 2018, when the European Court of Human Rights dismissed his case.
As for his hairstyle, Mutu fluctuated throughout his career, with a style that saw him most successful at Fiorentina, but also playing for Inter Milan and Juventus.

Sometimes he let his hair grow longer, but in England it was brutally short – similar to his time at Chelsea.
Although he scored ten goals in 36 games, he ran into trouble after José Mourinho took over as coach and promptly left the club after failing a doping test.
Since ending his football career in 2016, Mutu has held seven managerial positions, including at top domestic club Rapid Bucharest.
However, he gave up his last position as coach of the Romanian top team CFR Cluj after only three months in April this year.
In the meantime, he worked patiently to develop a new head of hair – a process that took more time than his reign in Cluj.
Now he posted on Instagram: “After 5 months I am very happy with the result, thanks to the one and only @dr.emrahcinik @drcinik.global.”
Along with the message, Mutu added two pictures – both wearing sunglasses and a trendy three-day beard.
A snapshot apparently showed him after the first phase of his transplant – with the same head as his short, spiky beard.
The other picture showed his new, thick brown hair – gelled up quite triumphantly.
Despite the hair straightening at Chelsea, Mutu says overall he has never looked better.
Changes in the Premier League for 2024/25
NOTHING stays the same forever.
And that includes the Premier League, which is seeing a number of changes this season.
Team news is now published 75 MINUTES before kick-off, i.e. 15 minutes earlier than before.
It can get tight on the sidelines, as the number of substitutes for warm-up has been reduced from three players per team to FIVE.
There is also a change in the way Extra time is calculated when a team scores a goal, an update of the ‘Multiball’ and the introduction of semi-automatic offside positions – but not immediately.
Here you can find all the information about the changes in the Premier League for 2024/25.
