EAGLE-EYED fans believe Mason Mount pre-recorded his emotional farewell video - and it's all down to his hair colour.
Mount spoke to Chelsea fans on social media informing them of his decision to leave the club and the reasons behind the move.
Some fans focused on his hair however as his striking blond locks sparked speculation about when the video was filmed.
That's because photos emerged this week of Mount arriving at Manchester United's Carrington training ground with his usual brown hair.
And snaps on the midfielder's Instagram show he had been blond for there previous three weeks, including on his trip to Spain.
