Four-time Man Utd trophy winner, 37, looks unrecognisable as he heads to training with dramatic new look
SERGIO ROMERO has gone from silverware at the Theatre of Dreams to silver hair on his final big stage.
The ex-Manchester United keeper, 37, has unveiled a platinum look with home-country giants Boca Juniors.
Sergio Romero hopes his new look is a streak of luck for Boca
Romero was at Man Utd from 2015-2021PA
The veteran keeper took it easy during his re-style
Romero is Argentina’s most-capped stopper, with 96 appearances from 2008-2018.
His international swansong came midway through six years as David de Gea‘s back-up at Old Trafford, where he won the FA Cup, League Cup and Europa League.
And as well as new streaks in his hair, he’s still showing flashes of brilliance on the pitch.
Romero pulled off a double shootout save as Boca sunk Palmeiras in last season’s Copa Libertadores semis.
Sadly for the ex-Sampdoria No1, Fluminense avenged defeat for their fellow Brazilians with a 2-1 win at the final in Rio de Janeiro last November.
Now Romero has changed his locks in an effort to help Boca find the key to solving their surprise early plight this campaign.
He’s gone silver for the past two matches – with the so-called “second phase” of the season, which began last month, just under way.
Romero’s fashion re-think was highlighted in a fun video by hair salon Peluqueria Nino.

The stylists have previously given new looks to other Boca stars, including another ex-Red Devil in 34-year-old defender Marcos Rojo.
Even team coach Diego Martínez has been cropped by the salon.
Now Romero will hope his new style has fringe benefits for Boca.
The 35-time Argentinian champs are nearer the drop zone than the title hunt after the four-game first phase this term.
