ARSENAL cult hero Andrey Arshavin looked unrecognisable holding a stein at the Champions League final in Munich.
The Russian, 44, was in town to watch Paris Saint-Germain’s historic 5-0 win over Inter Milan on Saturday.
Andrey Arshavin looked unrecognisable as he enjoyed beers in Munich
The former Russia star wore glasses and a hat
Former Russia and Hull boss Leonid Slutsky (centre) also joined in the funArshavin appeared in good spirits as he toasted the occasion with a beer while also enjoying food with friends – one of whom was former Russia and Hull City manager Leonid Slutsky.
But anyone walking past would have needed to do a double take.
That’s because Arshavin looked hardly recognisable as he kept a low profile in glasses and blue baseball cap.
And Arsenal supporters were left stunned as they questioned whether it really was the same man who lit up north London for over four years.
One fan said: “Oh f*** I can’t actually tell if it’s him or not.”
Another declared: “He looks like a science teacher.”
One noted: “That guy put four past Liverpool, let that sink in.”
Another added: “Imagine seeing him at a beerhall and he’s like, ‘Yeah I played in the Premier League for Arsenal’.”

It’s not the first time Arshavin threw fans off with his look.
The icon again looked unrecognisable while being spotted in London two years ago, this time pairing some large glasses with a wooly hat.

He went on to score 31 goals in 144 outings before returning to Zenit permanently in 2013.
Arshavin ended his football career in 2018 with Kazakhstani side Kairat.
And he has since held a backroom role with Zenit, while also completing his Uefa A Licence earlier this year.
