Landon Donovan was one of the absolute top stars of US football, and also briefly played at Bayern. Now the ex-kicker has decided to take a drastic step.

Ex-football star Landon Donovan presented his fans a completely changed appearance on social media. In a clip that he spread on the X platform, Donovan shows himself how he gets a wig.

In the video you can see how Donovan appears on his appointment, first gets his head shaved and then the wig is glued on. Above all, Donovan is almost shocked by the intermediate step with a shaved head, only says: “Oh my god, she just shaved my head.”

Shortly afterwards, Donovan is not that bad for the look and is already thinking about smearing the remaining hair on the side of the head. But he is caught up with the employee who takes care of his wig: “Don’t dare!”

At the end of the video, Donovan then presents a photo of herself with the new, glued hair. For the video, the 43-year-old writes emotional words to his fans: “After years in which I tried different things, I finally tried a wig. I was really encouraged by your news in the past few days.

A few days earlier, Donovan had uploaded a video by talking about his hair loss and reporting on two hair transplants, which, however, were not particularly successful. He also asked his followers, which he should now do with his hair. The choice finally fell on the wig.

During his active career, who extended over 20 years until his resignation, Donovan was one of the absolute top stars of US football. In the two thousand years, he also played for FC Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga for Bayer Leverkusen and loan for two months.
