Alan Shearer made the move to his beloved Newcastle after Euro 96, and he went on to score 206 goals in 405 appearances for the Magpies.

148 of these came in the Premier League, which took his total to 260 – a record that still remains in tact today.

He retired in 2006 and was then roped back to Newcastle as manager in a bid to keep the club in the top-flight in 2009, although his side were unable to avoid the drop.

Shearer hasn’t returned to management since and is instead a regular pundit for the BBC on Match of the Day, and their coverage of the World Cups and European Championships.
