Eagle-eyed fans noticed that a bald patch on top of the striker's head looks remarkably like a set of male genitals as he was substituted off during a game against Udinese on Sunday.
While the Macedonia captain's hair has been thinning for a while, this was the first time the patches had joined up to make such an unfortunate shape.
As could be expected, fans on Twitter wasted no time in poking fun at Pandev.
'He literally went for the d*ckhead cut,' one person joked.
Others offered him up as an early nomination for 'haircut of the season', while dozens of aubergine emojis were also banded around.
A few fans sympathised with the striker, with one suggesting he needs to 'do a Rooney' as quickly as possible - in reference to the star's famous transplant.
Meanwhile some suggested that he needs to accept baldness and shave his head immediately to avoid further mockery.
While there have been too many terrible football haircuts through the years to mention them all, who could forget Ronaldo's half-dome, the time Salomon Kalou shaved an insect into the back of his head, and Carlos Valderrama's blonde afro.
