Some football fans are convinced that Liverpool superstar Sadio Mane has benefitted from a ‘hair transplant’ sometime recently, with the forward’s follicles looking lengthier than ever this afternoon.
Mane has always looked a bit short at the front of his head, with the ace’s hair usually styled in a manner that saw it thrust high, whilst usually donning a yellow stripe in the side.
Today though, as our featured image shows, Mane’s hair looked much fuller at the front, with these leading spades of fans to believe that the 28-year-old has benefitted from a hair transplant.
The winger’s hair certainly looks to be distributed in a more balanced manner around his head, but there could be other explanations – like the fact he’s taken some off the top, which would make take some attention away from his forehead.
This is how Mane’s hair shaped up back in May, which was nine months ago to be fair:

Still baffled how Sadio mane had time for a hair transplant in a national lockdown btw

There were some other, perhaps more unlikely explanations for the follicle resurgence:
Either Mane’d forehead has shrunk or he’s had a hair transplant ?? #LEILIV #LFC @LFC

Mane has actually had a hair transplant hasn’t he? Either that or someone just glued that bit at the end on.

The government need to open hair surgeries right now. Sadio Mane has drawn on a new hairline with a felt tip pen. Another low for the pandemic

Mane has looked as such for some time now, so it shouldn’t be a question of the humble star potentially having broken lockdown to receive treatment, that would be very out of character and unlikely.
If a transplant has been undergone, the results usually take some time to come through, which is perhaps why this is only being noticed by fans now.
