Soccer Aid 2024 fans were left doing a double take at Robbie Williams’ appearance.
The singer was leading the famous faces on Sunday (June 9) as the charity match made its return for 2024. The event saw the likes of Danny Dyer, Tommy Fury and Sam Thompson take part in the game.
But it’s fair to say Robbie got plenty of people talking. So much so, that some viewers claimed they didn’t even recognise him on the telly.
Robbie Williams at Soccer Aid 2024
Musician Robbie, who initiated Soccer Aid in 2006, made brief cameos throughout the show at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester.
Appearing on Soccer Aid, Robbie rocked a smart blue trouser suit, styled with black glasses. But it was his hair transformation that left fans stunned. The Let Me Entertain You hitmaker opted for a grey long Mohawk-style hairdo.

One person penned: “Do you know I’ve only just turned it on and I didn’t recognise Robbie Williams at first with his new haircut lol.” Someone else wrote: “I didn’t even recognise Robbie Williams at first earlier.”
A third said: “Robbie Williams looks so different these days. I wouldn’t have recognised him if it wasn’t Soccer Aid.”
