Snippet from the article:
Arsene Wenger has warned that professional footballers looking to cure baldness with hair loss products could be putting their careers at risk.
The Arsenal manager made the shocking claim when discussing the nature of injuries in his weekly press conference ahead of Sunday’s game against Everton.
