CHELSEA star Mykhailo Mudryk has shown off a bold new look ahead of the new season.
The winger has struggled to live up to his £97million price tag since moving to Stamford Bridge 18 months ago.
But he will be hoping for a fresh start under new manager Enzo Maresca after finding himself in and out of the side under Mauricio Pochettino.
Mudryk, 23, is set to travel to the US for a pre-season tour along with the rest of the Chelsea squad, and he will sport a new look across the pond.
That is because he has got rid of his trademark blond locks, which he often wore with a middle parting.
The Ukrainian has shaved his head in a bold look, which has split opinion amongst the Chelsea fanbase.

One Blues fan reacted saying: “Mudryk buzzed his hair, he’s gonna be even more s***e. Ffs.”
Another added: “Mudryk really caught off his hair… nice one… maybe he’ll score now 😂”
A third said: “Mudryk took the Obi Mikel criticism about his hair too seriously 😂”
Mudryk’s decision to cut his hair has come just weeks after Chelsea icon John Obi Mikel advised him to do exactly that.

He said: “Mudryk, he needs to get his head right, he needs to – I was going to swear – he needs to f***ing get his head right because he’s such a good player, pace, power, quick and good on the ball.
“But he needs to get his act right, he needs to forget about the whole hair, whatever, the tattoos no! Play f***ing football and win games.”
