Artur Boruc pulls on Celtic shirt again and Hoops fans are loving it

Artur Boruc pulls on Celtic shirt again for Legia Warsaw farewell showdown and Hoops fans are loving it

ARTUR BORUC has pulled on the Celtic colours for a final time ahead of his  farewell clash in Poland

The Hoops are in action against Boruc's Legia Warsaw and he is calling time on his career after a 22-year long stint in football.

The goalkeeper – who won 65 caps for Poland – has been with Legia for eight years over the course of two spells and also played for Fiorentina, Southampton and Bournemouth.

During the warm-up for tonight's game, Boruc wore the Hoops No1 jersey and fans were loving the touch.

One wrote on Twitter: "One of the greats."

A second tweeted: "What a legend!"

A third said: "The Legend himself!"

And a fourth added: "Sign him up."

Celtic players wore a special Boruc t-shirt in tribute to Boruc ahead of the showdown in Poland.

It’s the penultimate friendly match for Ange Postecoglou’s side, with another game against Norwich City this weekend before the new Premiership season kicks off on July 31.

And the Hoops boss will be looking for another tough test for his side when they take on their Polish opponents tonight.
