Arsenal star Rob Holding now looks completely different after going from bald to full head of hair leaving fans stunned


ARSENAL star Rob Holding is almost unrecognisable having gone from nearly bald to sporting a full head of luscious locks.

The Gunners centre-back had a noticeably receding hairline at the end of last season – despite only turning 26 in September.

He was then pictured with a shaved head during pre-season over the summer – which some fans suggested was evidence of a hair transplant.

And snaps from Arsenal training last week show a complete transformation – with the defender having a full head of hair.

Holding was signed for £2million from Bolton in 2016 – at which stage he was fairly follicly blessed.

But his barnet, like his playing time in recent months, gradually faded away over time.

Holding has previously opened up on his struggles with self-confidence as a result of his hair loss.

And he revealed a hair transplant at a London clinic helped transform his mental health.
