SoccerPlayer tattoos

Djibril Cissé

This French striker may love to wear velvet crush pants and sport blond Mohawks, but he looks pretty good while doing it. Born in Arles, but of Ivorian descent, this 27 year-old French player currently plays for Marseille. Cissé comes from good football playing stock, as his father was formerly a professional footballer who captained his country’s team in the Ivory Coast. While he may make the headlines for his outrageous style and recent high-profile wedding, he first made his name in the football world in the 2001 FIFA World Youth Championship, when he led France to a quarter final finish in the tournament and scored six goals over the five games. Oh, and if you can get past the tattoos and wild hair, he doesn’t look so bad without clothes on. I’m also giving him bonus points for his ability to spawn a child that beautiful.

Philippe Mexes

Although this French back hails from Toulouse, he’s been playing fro AS Roma so long the Italians almost think of him as one of their own. Unfortunately Mexes has not taken up the Italian pastime of taking off his clothes, as most of the pictures of this foxy blond player are clothed. However, this 26-year old center back has been gaining increased attention as an integral member of the Rome team. I just wish he’d follow Gourcuff’s lead and take his clothes off more often.
