“I need a hair replacement.” I can’t wait to finish it. If you’ve ever considered finishing yours, this is the place to be.

After that, the video follows Ferdinand as he goes through each stage of the surgery.

Finally, we see Ferdinand deliver a signed Manchester United shirt to the hospital as a gift. He seemed to be rather pleased with himself.

This facility has previously treated former Premier League players Bacary Sagna, Ryan Babel, and Diego Lugano. David Trezeguet, the French World Cup winner, was also treated at this clinic.

The hospital already includes jerseys from a variety of teams, including Liverpool, Marseille, Brazil, and Croatia, in its collection, which is regarded as of outstanding quality.

“I dye my beard on occasion because I get gray hairs here,” he told Gabby Logan. I actually color it. In my opinion, it appears to be more sophisticated.

I don’t mind having gray hair, but I believe it would be more appealing if it had a consistent color.

Even if the beard turned entirely gray, I’d be fine to ignore it. Nonetheless, it resembles needlework.
