Cycling legend Sir Bradley Wiggins poses in iconic Rangers shirt in lockdown snap

Cycling legend Sir Bradley Wiggins has Rangers fans in a spin after posing in an iconic strip while battling lockdown boredom.

Sir Brad, who was the first Brit to win the Tour de France in 2012, donned the classic 1996/97 season shirt in the pictures uploaded to Twitter today.

The 40-year-old kept it cool in his garden with a pair of sunglasses and trainers alongside an impressive beard and shaved head.

He captioned the images "Groundhog Day #lockdown".

And the Ibrox club clearly approved of his choice of clothing, with their official Twitter handle appearing in the comments, writing "Can't beat that 96-97 number.

They also included a picture of Paul Gascoigne celebrating in the shirt from the 96/97 season.

His post racked up 5,000 likes in the hour since it was put on Twitter.

Sir Bradley is one of the UK's greatest ever cyclists, winning the coveted Tour de France and five Olympic gold medals during a glittering career.

He called time on his days in the saddle in December 2016.
