Sasa Papac went the distance in his bid to get back in shape for last weekend’s legends kickabout at Ibrox after completing his first half-marathon. And the Rangers cult icon reckons it’s time his old side got back on the trophy treadmill too.
The 43-year-old joined up with an array of heroes from yesteryear for Sunday’s bounce game in front of 25,000 fans. Some of the waistlines on show were a little larger than when these retired stars were in their prime but Papac still looked like he could do a turn for Michael Beale’s Light Blues line-up.
The left-back has kept himself in decent nick since hanging up his boots following a six-year stint in Glasgow. So much so, he even managed to finish a gruelling 13-mile race just a week before his run-out with Jermain Defoe, Ronald de Boer, Lorenzo Amoruso and Co. Former Bosnia and Herzegovina international Papac said: “It was great to be back at Ibrox. To be part of this game was fantastic.
