    Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe admits he was not impressed to learn goalkeeper Artur Boruc had travelled north to Glasgow to cheer on Legia Warsaw against Rangers.

    The former Celtic keeper also played for Legia and is a boyhood supporter of the Polish club. He was photographed holding a megaphone as he led chants at Ibrox.

    But, speaking at a press conference, Cherries boss Howe said: 'I only knew about it very late last night. So it's not really ideal.

    It's something I will speak to Artur about today.

    'I don't know too much about the details of it. I just knew he was there.'

    Boruc played for Legia between 1999 and 2005, while beginning to make a name for himself in European football.

    The fixture had added significance for the 39-year-old, with him also having played for Rangers' bitter rivals Celtic in the Scottish Premiership.

    Boruc spent five years with Celtic and made over 150 appearances for the club, before a stint at Fiorentina and then an arrival in the Premier League.

    Arriving in English football with Southampton, Boruc went on to make a loan spell with Bournemouth before permanently signing for the club.

    Loved Paul Caddis' stories about him in the Open Goal interview. Hiding in the dressing room toilets to have a smoke before a game. :56:

    FORMER Celtic hero Artur Boruc could be set for an emotional return to his first major club Legia Warsaw ... at the age of 40.

    The Polish veteran collected six major honours in a five-year spell at Celtic before moving to Fiorentina ten years ago.


    He's now back-up keeper at Bournemouth after a spell with Southampton.

    But he is now considering an offer to return to his homeland and play for Legia, the club he's always supported and played for before he moved to Celtic.


    Boruc was famously pictured last year with a megaphone leading the chants of the Legia Warsaw fans at Ibrox during a Europa League tie against his old rivals Rangers, which Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe admitted he was unaware of.

    And he could be set to return to the club, after Legia goalkeeping coach, Krzysztof Dowhan, said: "It would be a very good move by the club to bring back Artur


    Physically, it would not be a problem and he would be incredibly motivated to play for Legia, the club that made him."

    The logical move to round out his career. Will always remember his 6 years with us fondly.

    Still the best goalie I've ever saw between the sticks for Celtic, that Hibs save above is up there with best saves I've ever saw.

    Good luck to him.

    The man could still keep the goal well into his 60's. Legend.

    Always had a feeling he’d end up back in Poland.
