It could prove a pricey trim for England international Jadon Sancho.
The Borussia Dortmund forward has been fined by the German football league after being pictured having a home haircut without wearing a mask.
The 20-year-old called the decision “an absolute joke” in a Twitter post that he later deleted.
Sancho’s team-mate Manuel Akanji has also been fined after they were both deemed to have broken rules, with the league saying the players had “obviously violated general hygiene and infection protection standards”.

Both players received visits from a hairdresser at their respective homes, with neither the stylist nor the player wearing masks.
Dortmund defended the players, saying they did not breach the Bundesliga’s health and safety rules.
