Peter Lovenkrands might be famous at Rangers for his Old Firm goals and lifting trophies above his head.
But the former Danish winger has found worldwide fame through a sensational meme which continues to break the internet.
Back in 2018, Peter Lovenkrands shared an Instagram link on Twitter wishing his golden labrador a happy 12th birthday, describing the dog as his ‘beautiful boy’.
But one Rangers fan failed to click the link and responded ‘hopefully grows up to score goals against Celtic, just like his old man’.
A photoshopped image of the dog’s head in a Rangers jersey then went viral alongside the comment and an internet legend was born.

”It comes it waves, especially Halloween, Christmas, when they all start dressing up.
”I’ve seen people walk through airports like that, with the head on, right.
”I get sent them all the time so that people send it to me on social media and my kids now at school, every time they go to school.
”People talking like I’m going to dress up as this next and I’m like, my dog died five years ago, six years go.”

”He’s actually been sold,” said Lovenkrands. “I went down to the Newcastle game against Wolves.
”Somebody’s done it with a Newcastle strip on. It’s actually a wee kid standing with a dog head on and a Newcastle kit.
”I mean, he’s been sold.”
