Carlos Tevez has replaced his back with a giant tattoo.
The Juventus striker, who has been in imperious form for the Old Lady this season with nine goals and five assists, took to Twitter to thank renowned artist Piotrek Taton for the work.
The extremely detailed work, which covers the entirety of Tevez's back, connects with a full sleeve of tattoos on his right arm.
The work features a giant sun near Tevez's neck and various figures, both men and women, in different poses.
Tevez said: "Thanks friend for your magnificent art !!! You're the greatest."
Juventus drew away to Fiorentina at the weekend, a result that ended their six-match winning run in Italy's top flight and the Champions League.
Massimo Allegri's team face Atletico Madrid on Tuesday night, with a draw enough for both teams to progress into the last-16.
