JORDON IBE faces a fine for flouting lockdown rules - by going for a haircut.

Bournemouth’s bad-boy midfielder, 24, posted a picture on social media of himself being given a trim wearing a coat that bore the slogan ‘breaking the rules’.

The Cherries will now discipline Ibe after confirming that they have launched an internal investigation into the post.

A club spokesperson said: “We are aware of a social media post made by one of our players.

“We have launched an internal investigation, the outcome of which will remain confidential.”

Ibe became the second Premier League star this week to flout social distancing regulations by having a trim after Spurs defender Serge Aurier. 

The barber in question is named Nikky of Slick Rick Barbers in Camberwell, South London, and has 91.3k followers on his Instagram account @iam_nikky.

Ibe’s latest gaffe will have no impact on his first-team opportunities as he has already been told his £38,000-a-week contract will not be renewed when it expires next month.

The ex-Liverpool winger has been training with the Under-21s at their separate training complex since January and will play no part in Project Restart.

Ibe checked into rehab earlier this month after being caught driving without a licence.

It came a year after being banned from driving after crashing his £130,000 Bentley into a South London cafe and fleeing the scene.

His ill-judged decision to get a snip came hours after Cherries striker Josh King urged his team-mates to abide by lockdown rules to protect their colleagues.
