FANS have been left stunned after seeing that a Euro 2024 coach has dramatically changed his trim since his playing days.

During his playing career, the former Napoli star became synonymous with his iconic mohawk hairstyle.
Now, Marek Hamsik wears a more conventional look.
The former midfielder has a classic short haircut with a fade on the back and sides.
He is best known for his 12-year stint with Napoli between 2007 and 2019.
The Slovakian star scored 121 goals in 520 appearances for the Italian side, earning legendary status in the process.
He went on to play for Dalian Professional, IFK Goteborg and Trabzonspor before hanging up his boots last year.
Hamsik earned 138 caps for his country, scoring 26 goals and appearing at three major tournaments in the process.
All the way he sported his iconic barnet, which has since gone by the wayside.

Having now retired from playing, Hamsik can be seen lending his wealth of experience as a coach for the Slovakian national team under boss Francesco Calzona.
The 55-year-old has worked with Hamsik before, having been assistant manager at Napoli between 2015 and 2018.

Slovakia have gotten their Euro 2024 campaign off to a stunning start.
They defeated Belgium 1-0 in Frankfurt on Monday, courtesy of Ivan Schranz’s seventh minute strike.
Calzona’s starting XI featured two veteran stars who played alongside Hamsik at the 2010 World Cup.
Peter Pekarik, 37, lined up at right-back, while Juraj Kucka, 37, was in midfield.
Slovakia’s campaign will continue on Friday, when they face Ukraine in Dusseldorf.
Seeing Hamsik during Monday’s clash with Belgium, fans couldn’t believe his new look.
One wrote on social media: “We miss that legendary hair style.”
While a second called him: “Unrecognisable.”
A third asked: “Where’s his mohawk?”
And another added: “no mohawk no party.”
