Glamour has always been a part of football. Be it flashy skills on the pitch or fashion off of it, glamour has always followed footballers wherever they went. 

David Beckham has rightly made the headlines for his footballing skills but also for his fashion, which he wears like a crown. 

Although a few footballers like Victor Lindelof have caused a stir on the internet for having “questionable fashion choices”.

Victor Lindelof has been a key defender throughout the years and has managed to show up every time he plays.

Be it his stint at Manchester United, where he won the EFL Cup and the FA Cup or his recent run at Aston Villa, where he won the Europa League. Victor has always been a reliable player wherever he plays.

With Victor being the captain of the Sweden team, fans have kept high hopes for their World Cup run.

Sweden are transitioning into a new era under Graham Potter and Victor remains the pillar of the team, keeping the morale high and being the dressing room leader.

Sweden’s qualification story into the World Cup remains a story for the books. Despite finishing bottom of their qualifying group, the UEFA Nations League playoff paved a pathway for them into the World Cup and Sweden is not looking to let this opportunity go.

Having nations like Japan, Tunisia and Netherlands in their group stage, It will not be an easy task for them but under Graham Potter, the team looks confident like never before.

Although, these are not the reasons Victor has been making headlines recently. 

A photo of Victor Lindelof wearing a blue denim skirt to Sweden’s camp before the World Cup has got the fans talking.

Wearing a retro Sweden kit on top and a blue denim skirt on the bottom, it surely gave him an awkward look.

People were commenting on him wearing the skirt, saying “he is in his baddie era,” and one user saying that the first thing that came to their mind seeing him wearing the skirt was the Sacha Baron Cohen starrer Ladies First movie on Netflix.

Despite the pic making quick rounds on the internet, it was easy to debunk the image as AI, after real pictures of him with wearing denim shorts surfaced online. 

But why did the internet decided to dress Lindelof in a skirt all of a sudden?

Its because Victor is known for rocking bold fashion throughout the years.

Victor and his wife posed for the Vogue Scandinavia magazine where he wore a rather all black attire with a black jacket and in a different picture, he wore a red pant while being shirtless with his wife posing. Fans criticised the player for his off pitch fashion runs and how he should be putting the time on the field instead.

The most famous example being in 2020 when Victor, to celebrate his wife’s new fashion clothing line, decided to wear one of the ladies dress from his wife’s clothing line while pouring champagne and celebrating her success and fans reactions were how questionable it looked.

Fans also supported Victor for supporting his spouse in times where most people just nod and move on and don’t take such moves to support them.

Be it his questionable fashion choice or his gameplay, victor has never been shy of making the headlines and most fans assume time isn’t far where he could start modelling as a side gig.
