Unpredictability is the norm when it comes to Pogba's hairstyles. The former Manchester United starlet has sported a plethora of wacky hairdos in recent times, including leopard prints and a minion from the animated comedy Despicable Me. His latest hairstyle draws inspiration from the France Football Federation cockerel, which has been 'carved' into the right side of his head.
