After becoming a free agent after running down his deal at Newcastle United, Owen joined Liverpool’s rivals, Manchester United, on a free transfer in July 2009.

The forward scored 17 times in 52 games for the Red Devils, with his most memorable strike being his first at Old Trafford.

On September 20, 2009, Owen tucked away a dramatic injury time winner against arch-rivals Manchester City to seal a last-gasp 4-3 derby win inside the Theatre of Dreams.
