ALAN SHEARER
He played as a striker in the top levelof English league football for SouthamptonBlackburn RoversNewcastle United and the England national team. He is Newcastle's and the Premier League's record goalscorer. He was named Football Writers' Association Player of the Year in 1994 and won the PFA Player of the Year award in 1995. In 1996, he was third in the FIFA World Player of the Year awards. In 2004 Shearer was named by Pelé in the FIFA 100 list of the world's greatest living players.

1996-1997

After Euro 96, Manchester United again sought to sign Shearer and attempted to enter the battle for his signature. However, Manchester United chairman Martin Edwards stated that Blackburn Rovers refused to let Shearer go to Old Trafford. Ultimately Shearer joined his boyhood club and Manchester United's title rivals Newcastle United.

On 30 July 1996, for a world transfer record-breaking £15 million (equivalent to £26 million today) Shearer joined his hometown club and league runners-up Newcastle United, managed by his hero Keegan. Shearer made his league debut away at Everton, on 17 August 1996, and maintained his form during the rest of the season, finishing as Premier League top-scorer for the third consecutive season with 25 goals in 31 Premier League games, as well as winning another PFA Player of the Year accolade,despite a groin injury forcing him to miss seven matches. Perhaps his best performance of the season came on 2 February 1997, when Newcastle went into the final 15 minutes of the game 3–1 down at home to Leicester City in the league, only for Shearer to win them the game 4–3 by scoring a late hat-trick. However, the league title still eluded the club, who finished second in the league for a consecutive year, with Keegan resigning midway through the season.
