Former Sunderland striker Asamoah Gyan has breached United Arab Emirates Football Association guidelines on hairstyles.
The Ghanaian international is currently on loan at Al-Ahli, who are based in Dubai.
Gyan is one of 40 players to have been found guilty of breaching Saudi rules.
He showed off his new mohawk during the Africa Cup of Nations as Ghana lost in the semi-finals.
But Islamic teachings ban 'Qaza' hairstyles where only part of the head is shaved.

Gyan is on a season-long loan from Shangahi SIPG after a proposed move to Reading fell through.
Republic of Ireland legend Robbie Keane had been training with Al-Ahli as he weighs up his next move.
But the 36-year-old is unlikely to join the club and was simply invited to train during a family holiday.
Keane has also been linked with a return to English football and recently revealed he had rejected approaches from a number of clubs.
