It does seem absurd to read too much into a player getting a haircut, but Dani Ceballos has turned up to Arsenal training sporting a fairly radical new look as he’s gone for the skinhead:

There are some interesting similarities to be made with his managers here, but Ceballos always had a good head of hair and although it wasn’t quite on Mikel Arteta’s level of perfection, it wasn’t far away.
This new style suddenly looks like he’s trying to make sure Zinedine Zidane hasn’t forgotten about him back in Madrid by copying his lack of hair, and plenty of fans are pointing it out:
