L.A Galaxy soccer midfielder David Beckham was sporting a new hairdo on Friday during the team’s 1-0 win against Houston Dynamo in the MLS Western Conference Cup at Home Depot Center in Carson, Louisiana.

The hairstyle is short on the sides, in an abbreviated military version of ‘high and tight’. A section of hair is highlighted, running from forehead to neckline. The top has been compared to a style worn by X Factor contestants John and Edward – see side-by-side pics below.

View the entire gallery of David Beckham’s new hairstyle. One reader suggested it might be a European mullet. Another suggested white sidewalls and a mullet. A third lamented the scraggly attempt at a beard.
