7) Stephane Guivarc’h (Newcastle United)
The Frenchman’s time in the North East was fleeting and quite frankly abysmal. Kenny Dalglish signed the forward for £3.5m from Auxerre in the summer of 1998 after Guivarc’h had played a part in France’s victorious World Cup campaign on home soil. He was sold to Rangers for £3.5m in November 1998, just months after arriving on Tyneside, and having scored once in four games.
