ANTONIO VALENCIA has stunned fans with his new look with some saying he is "unrecognisable".
The Ecuadorian played for Manchester United for a decade between 2009 and 2019.
Valencia, 38, became a crucial player for the Red Devils after he was signed by manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
He has since reunited with his former team-mate and club legend Wayne Rooney.
The two met up while in Washington, where Rooney, 37, is managing DC United.
The pair posed for a photo as the Englishman donned his DC tracksuit and Valencia rocked some jeans and a jacket.
