Napoli midfielder Marek Hamsik dresses in drag for Italy's Mardi Gras

Napoli midfielder Marek Hamsik looked unrecognisable while dressed as a woman for Mardi Gras celebrations in Italy.

According to the Daily Mail, the 26-year-old, who featured in Napoli's victory over Swansea City in the Europa League last week, joined thousands of revellers for the carnival last week.

Photographs of the midfielder wearing a blonde wig, a sparkly pink dress, high heels and fishnet tights have appeared across social media.
