6. Andrea Silenzi – Nottingham Forest, 1995-97
Silenzi was the first Italian player to ply his trade in the Premier League, but that’s about as impressive as it gets and the erratic marksman didn’t last long in the UK at all.
Signed for £1.8m, he managed a whopping ten games and no goals in his first season before making two anonymous appearances the next season. Vicenza saved him from his East Midlands nightmare on a loan deal.
