10@10: Djibril Cisse, David Beckham, and 10 tattooed footballers

We've all done things we regret, even if it's only the last pint (or four) that we really shouldn't have had last night.

But Arsenal defender Armand Traore is now trying to get rid of something a bit more difficult to shift than a bit of a hangover.

The Frenchman has decided to undergo surgery to remove his tattoos after he became a Muslim, as the faith forbids any permanent changes to the body.
