Zander Clark’s summer started on the Maldives’ sun-kissed beaches with new wife Robyn.
But the honeymoon period was well and truly over all too soon as the big keeper was hit with the realisation that his footballing future was up in the air. By September – when he was still without a club – the new Mrs Clark was desperate to get him OUT the house and back to work.
Incredibly, the former St Johnstone No.1 was training with his pals and a bunch of kids during three months of limbo. Now? He’s in the Hearts side and if he keeps up his current form could potentially be Scotland ’s first-choice keeper for the Euro 2024 qualifiers in March. It has been a rollercoaster ride of emotion for Clark since he left Perth at the end of May. After securing his future off the pitch by getting married, how he got back on it was uncertain for too long.
