Parker pays tribute to a 'masterpiece'

TS Galaxy star Bernard Parker has dazzled himself in esteem by being in the company of one of South African football's most iconic players. 

The 37-year-old was spotted with former star, now legend, Lucas 'Masterpieces' Moripe in a meeting that is sure to inspire the midfielder as he works to get back to full fitness.

The former Kaizer Chiefs star sustained what many believed to be a career-threatening injury at the time after a controversial tackle by Mamelodi Sundowns star Bongani Zungu in October last year. 

As he endeavours to make a return to action, the player's main focus seems to be his recovery with him consistently taking to social media to share how hard he is working in the gym. 

It has not all been physical, however, as he shared snaps of himself with the man who was awarded Player of the Year as well as Sportsman of the Year in 1973 while representing Pretoria Callies. 

It showed the pair full of smiles while holding a Moripe shirt with the number 10 on it. The legend was also holding the TS Galaxy star's book titled 'From a Shack to Destiny'. 

"Today we visited our Legend Mr Lucas Masterpieces Moripe. Was a great honour meeting the Legend," Parker wrote on Instagram.
