The Nigerian striker has been a force to be reckoned with since he entered the Premiership in 1999. Despite a terrible first outing in the UK - where he forced Arsenal to replay a match which they had already won - Kanu soon found his true form.

Today Kanu can be found at Portsmouth where his keen pace and superb striking has seen his side into the 2008 FA Cup final. Plus he's the only current Premiership player to have won the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Cup, Premiership, FA Cup and an Olympic Gold Medal.
