In the world of sports, the work of the stars is recognized annually at awards galas, which also serve to highlight the worst dressed Latin athletes.
Here are 5 sports figures who have caught the attention of fans for having bad taste in clothes off the court.
Lionel Messi
For many fans, Lionel Messi is the best soccer player in history. However, he has never been praised for his attire, especially when it was his turn to receive the Ballon d’Or.
Possibly, in terms of numbers (goals and assists), the Argentine will finish his career ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo. But, he will never be able to come close to the Portuguese’s style.
In this list, we are not talking about how good Messi is on the field. We simply believe that the star needs some help when it comes to selecting his wardrobe for sport’s gala events.
Saúl “Canelo” Álvarez
Four-time world boxing champion, Saul “Canelo” Alvarez constantly surprises his fans wearing expensive clothes that are very unpopular style wise.
For example, a pair of pajamas that the Mexican recently wore in a photo he shared on social media and which were worth $2,000. Because the design was similar to a cow’s fur, he became the target of several jokes. This incident was more than enough to earn his place among the worst-dressed Latino athletes.
Being one of the boxers of the moment is synonymous of millions of dollars, but that doesn’t guarantee being able to dress in a way that people admire and even try to imitate.
Javier “Chicharito” Hernández
Javier “Chicharito” Hernandez is one of the best players in Mexican history, yet he can’t seem to dress up to it.
Being married to a top model and living in Los Angeles was not enough for Hernandez to stand out with a sophisticated and modern look. On the contrary, when the player made public appearances with Sarah Kohan, he was almost always criticized for the way he dressed.
The former Manchester United striker is currently single, and that may be a major reason why he seems to be wearing clothes that highlight his physique.
Carlos Vela
Carlos Vela has made MLS history with Los Angeles FC, but his success hasn’t extended to the world of fashion.
Recently, the Mexican star was the target of jokes on social networks due to his 70s style pants. This may have been a joke, rather than intentional, although it is not the first time that the player has made a bad impact with the way he dresses.
Vela, like Javier Hernandez, lived in England before coming to MLS. So it’s really surprising that they don’t have good taste when it comes to looking good on the street.
Jonathan Dos Santos
Jonathan Dos Santos is a soccer player who normally displays good taste when it comes to dressing for big events in the world of sports. However, recently, we have seen him on social networks with some looks that have sparked strong criticism.
In general, the youngest of the Dos Santos brothers knows what kind of clothes to wear to attract attention, but the problem is that sometimes he doesn’t seem to measure himself well enough and ends up becoming an easy target for haters.
The world of sports doesn’t stray too far from fashion, especially when we’re talking about stars who amass millions of followers on their Instagram accounts.
Many athletes with weird dressing tastes were missing from this list, but we only focused on the worst-dressed Latino athletes who accumulate the most followers on social media.
