#5 Andrey Arshavin - FC Kairat

FC Zenit St Petersburg v FC Lokomotiv Moscow - Russian Premier League
A degree in fashion designing?

The Gunners fans remember this particular Russian forward as being one of the most talented and recognizable footballers way back in the mid-2000s. A maestro on the pitch, Arshavin's days as an Arsenal player didn't quite get him the recognition at world level. His disastrous campaigns with Arsene Wenger forced the former Gunners manager to sell him. Nevertheless, the 37-year-old left for Zenit St. Petersburg in 2013, and currently plays in Kazakhstan for FC Kairat.

But the most surprising element is the fact that Arshavin apparently holds a degree in fashion designing, and a Masters Degree at that. In addition, his work is well noted all over Russia, and he is considered one of the most famous designers in his country.
