Ledley King – Tottenham Hotspur
One club man King began his career as a central midfielder, a position from which he scored the Premier League’s fastest ever goal – after 10 seconds of a 3-3 draw at Bradford in 2010.
However, he swiftly moved to centre-back, becoming one of the classiest defenders of his generation.
His career was blighted by a knee injury that forced him to retire at the age of 31, but he still managed to represent England 21 times at senior international level between 2002 and 2010.
