In the Brazilian national team, a rather peculiar situation has arisen: a player was asked to change his hair color. The player in question is Yan Couto, who not only impressed with his great play at Girona but also with his extravagant pink hair.

Couto played a crucial role in Girona's historic campaign, which saw the club qualify for its first Champions League. As a result, the player was called up by coach Dorival Junior.

However, the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) imposed a condition on the full-back to participate in the Copa América with the team: he had to change his hair color from pink, as it was deemed "too extravagant."

Yan Couto complied with this decision in Brazil's preparatory games against Mexico and the United States, sporting brown hair. “It was basically a request. They told me that pink was kind of extravagant or something like that. I don't think so, but I will respect it. They asked me to do it, and I will,” the Brazilian stated.
