A one-off tournament will be contested between legendary Celtic, Rangers, Hearts and Hibs players at the Braehead Arena next month.

The Scottish Masters Cup 2023 will take place on Saturday, September 9 and feature ex-pro footballing icons putting their club's colours on once again.

This year's line-up includes ex-Rangers and Sky Sports pundit Kris Boyd, Celtic legend Kris Commons, Andy Webster, who made over 200 appearances for Hearts, and many more.

The event will feature a round-robin format, with each match lasting 16 minutes across two halves.

Hosted across 15 arenas around the UK, a total of over 1,500 ex-pro footballers have played in The Masters series since its first competition back in 2000.

This year's tournament is playing in front of an expected crowd of up to 4,000, as well as a large streaming audience.

Steve Black, founder and CEO of Masters Football, said: "After seeing how successful The Masters Cup event in Glasgow went last year, we wanted to bring the tournament back for our fans, with an all-Scottish competition, featuring legends from Celtic, Rangers, Hearts and Hibs. 

 

"This one-off tournament in Glasgow is a great opportunity for our ex-pros to show they still have it – we are expecting it to be a lot of fun and can't wait to see everyone there!"
