Paul Pogba intentionally toned down his usually flamboyant hairstyle during France's road to World Cup glory.
The Manchester United midfielder has often faced scrutiny over his elaborate hairdos , fashion sense and penchant for fancy dance moves.
Pogba was keen not to give his detractors any ammunition during Russia 2018, though, and he played a starring role as Les Bleus were crowned world champions for the second time.
"A haircut does not prevent you [the media] from talking, but I purposely did nothing, to stay low key," he told RMC .
