Ianis Hagi gets Rangers ribbing as Ibrox pals make sure they keep 'Mr Pepsi' humble

You would think Rangers star Ianis Hagi is flying high after the Premiership title win at Ibrox.

Not only that, he is park of a massive Pepsi campaign in his homeland as the Romania cap makes strides towards becoming a household name.

Hagi has appeared in an advert juggling balls and Pepsi cans between superstar names like Paul Pogba and Jadon Sancho, and has been plastered across soft drinks can.

However, his Rangers team-mates are making sure the playmaker keeps his feet firmly on the ground.

Bongani Zungu and Calvin Bassey have taken to Instagram to poke fun at the leap to superstardom of their pal.

South Africa cap Zungu can be heard calling Hagi 'Mr Pepsi' in the dressing room clip shared to his story.

Joker Bassey then joins on the act by thanking the 22-year-old for giving him a can with his face on it.

Hagi takes it all in good fun as he laughs off the playful jibes, even sharing the videos to his own Instagram page.

It's the second time the midfielder has featured in an ad campaign in Romania having previously appeared on cans alongside Lionel Messi.
