Can you really see him sitting in an office wearing a suit? Or being a physio?

Rangers striker Dado Prso is set to put retirement plans on hold and play on into next season.

The 32-year-old Croatian had hinted that knee injury problems would prompt him to quit the game at the end of the current campaign.

But his agent, Ranko Stojic, told Daily Record PM: "Dado wants to stay and I have had good dialogue with the club.

"They also want him to stay because, not only is he good on the field, he is inspirational off it as well."

Rangers striker Dado Prso has been told he can carry on playing for at least one more season.

The 32-year-old Croatian, who is out of contract in the summer, has been dogged by a persistent knee injury and was seen by a specialist on Tuesday.

Agent Ranko Stojic told the Daily Record: "Dado has been told he can play on for a minimum of one more season.

"Dado wants to play on for as long as possible and he is feeling much better than he was a few weeks ago."

The former Monaco forward retired from international football after last year's World Cup.

And he has been missing with a hamstring injury since 13 January.

"He will see how things go between now and the end of the season but the doctor has said there are no risks for him or his club and there are no problems," added Stojic.

Exclusive! Prso To Quit Ibrox

DADO PRSO will leave Rangers at the end of the season and decide this summer if he'll retire from football altogether, following the news he cannot continue to play at the highest level.

Dado PrsoThe Croatian visited his specialist earlier this week for an examination on his injured knee and was given the news he had been fearing.

The 32-year-old has suffered ongoing problems with his knee for some years and his career has been guided by the trusted doctor back in France.

Unfortunately for both Prso and Rangers, the diagnosis this time was not good and as a result the Light Blue hero will now leave the club when his contract expires at the end of this season.

Although this moment was inevitable, an emotional Prso admitted he found the news hard to take and is devastated at having to leave Rangers.

Speaking exclusively Prso said: "I see my specialist every year and I went to see him earlier this week for our usual appointment.

"He told me that the situation with my knee is not getting any better and as a result I will need more and more rest.Dado Prso

"That is why I have decided that I won't be able to play on at Rangers next season.

"It's so frustrating for me. I knew I would have to stop playing one day, but that doesn't make it any easier once that time comes.

"I have spoken to the coach about my decision and it was a sad feeling."

There is a possibility Prso will be able to continue playing in some capacity in a less taxing league and that is a decision he will make in the summer.

The Croatian is loved for his whole-hearted style and never-say-die attitude and is determined not to cheat himself or the club next term.

He added: "This season has been very difficult for me. I have had a lot of injuries and it's been tough.

"For next year the specialist told me I will need even more rest and that makes it difficult for me to continue at this level.

"That is why I think it is better for everybody that I see out my contract in the summer.Dado Prso celebration

"I have loved my time here and believe me I tried to put this off as long as possible, always thinking 'maybe next year, maybe next year.'

"But I cannot push it back any longer and I know in myself that another year for Rangers would be very hard.

"For the club also, I don't want to be here if I can't produce my top form."
