Hide AdOwls fans have had their say on his new haircut on social media with one giving him the name ‘Lucas Pogba’.
Others have described Joao as resembling Simon Phoenix, played by Wesley Snipes, from the film Demolition Man or former Wednesday striker Akpo Sodje.
However, Owls fans will not get to see Joao sport his fresh trim on the pitch this weekend after the striker was ruled out of their trip to Derby County through injury.
He will be joined by Fernando Forestieri on the sidelines, having sustained a hamstring strain in Monday's Steel City derby draw at Sheffield United.
