Claudio Pizarro - has he had a nose job?

[jenni_blog]

After a discussion with a flister about whether or not Claudio Pizarro's nose looked as if he'd had surgery on it, I decided to go hunting for pictures that might prove it. Here are some pics of Claudio when he was younger, as well as pics of him now. I find the results rather inconclusive, however on some pics his nose does look different than it used to.

And I did find some evidence of a facial injury in 2004 for which he required surgery. This is from his Wiki page:

In the Copa América 2004 when playing for the Peruvian National team he suffered a fractured skull, when he took an elbow to the head in an on-field collision during a 3–1 win over Venezuela which forced him out of the Copa America and required extensive surgery in Germany.^[6] He was not able to play for over three months after the incident.

Claudio now:





Claudio younger. It does look different, doesn't it?

That's so weird, because his nose looks the OPPOSITE to what I showed...the convex nose pics are AFTER the concave ones! ?????????

It's a puzzle for sure! O_O

He has a secret twin. They can only be told apart by the curve of their nose. *nods*
