Studs

Footballers who wear diamond studs and earrings, including Pogba, Ronaldo and Neymar

DIAMONDS are now a man's best friend, if you see what these footballers love wearing.

Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar and Paul Pogba are all dedicated followers of fashion, dressing to the nines to look their best.

And aside from wearing the most expensive designer clothes their incredible salaries can afford, they're splashing the cash on bling that even Sean "Diddy" Combs would envy.

In today's world, footballers aren't afraid to wear jewellery - decorating their ear lobes with diamond studs and pricey earrings.

It would be enough to make Roy Keane mad!

Starting off with the most fashion conscious football of them all... Hector Bellerin...

The Arsenal man is known to push boundaries when it comes to his fashion choices, and he's not afraid to experiment.

When he's not on duty with the Gunners marauding down the right wing, he's posing in fancy photoshots wearing his favourite gold cross dangling from his left ear.

Pat Butcher would be jealous of those bad boys!

The Bayern Munich and Germany defender is one of football's most fashionable men.

In fact, there's talk of the giant centre half launching his own fashion magazine and he's got Jay Z helping him cultivate his image with his Roc Nation Sports group.

Boateng goes with diamond studs, that he likes to match with a pair of intellectual-looking glasses.

Now here's a man who is definitely not afraid to explore fashion's deepest boundaries.

After all, he once wore a £670 gold metal tie made by Hex and loves to have his teeth whitened.

And the Liverpool forward isn't afraid to show of his studs - a sparkly diamond set - when he's enjoying time away from the game.

The ultimate football icon, who has fashion labels/endorsements, coming out his ears... it's amazing that a jeweler hasn't approached him to front their diamond earring campaign.

Ron loves his bling, and with an estimated wealth of around £350m he could buy any diamond he wanted.

But Ronaldo seems to sport the same pair wherever he goes - again, a small, discrete diamond stud - leaving his missus Georgina Rodriguez to rule the roost in the earring front.

The pretender to Ronaldo's throne, he's another who loves an endorsement when it comes to fashion.

He lent his image to designers Replay Jeans and wore some of their clobber for an ad campaign during his time at Barcelona.

Neymar loves wearing hooped earrings, diamond of course, and has been known to wear three at the same time on one ear.

Paul Pogba

Back in October, when Manchester United were in crisis and Pogba and boss Jose Mourinho's relationship seemed at its most strained, the French star lost his diamond earring.

It reportedly happened at training, and the stud in question was said to be worth an incredible £10k.

For giggles, he swapped it out for an emoji earring that he modeled on social media. He's also been known to wear his initials on his ears too.

Liverpool's supersub striker is clearly a jewellery connoisseur.

The Reds frontman has been seen out and about wearing 18ct white gold plated diamond crystal studs.

He often matches his earrings with a diamond nose stud and once worse some gold grills for his teeth.

And the best of the rest...

England wonderkid Jadon Sancho has quickly learned that the world's best wear bling.

So, it wasn't a surprise to see the winger don a diamond pair for his first ever Three Lions press conference.

Man City's uncompromising centre half Nicolas Otamendi may be a brute on the pitch, but he's definitely not afraid to embrace his feminine side... although we wouldn't say that to his face.

Across town Man United's former winger Nani was one of the first foreign stars to bring bling to the Premier League. Lucky for him, Keane left Old Trafford two years before his arrival in 2007.

While Arsenal stars Mesut Ozil and Alexandre Lacazette risk their lobes by wearing their earrings in training.
