40 years, 6 months and 2 days. After being suspended for the first two games, Pepe’s debut in the new edition of the Liga Portugal bwin earned the blue and white captain a place on the podium of older athletes playing in the competition, apart from goalkeepers.
The Portuguese international overtook Fary in this way and is 23 days away from registering for the record achieved by Grazina. Jose Torres continues in the lead, with the former striker having played the last game at 41 years and 8 months.
Com 238 matches played in I Liga, Pepe continues to defy time and remains a mainstay in Invicta sides. Who knows, maybe the possibility of making history won’t motivate the centre-back to prolong his career beyond this season.
Pepe becomes the 3rd + senior field player to play in the League ????????:
