Stages of football career

Football career Teddy Sheringham began in the amateur team "Laytonstone." In this modest club, he was taken to the pencil scouts of the team "Millwall", representing at that time the second English division. With this club, the 16-year-old has concluded his first professional agreement. Two years later (in the 1994 season), he made his debut in the first team. And already in the second match he opened the score for the goals scored. It happened in a duel against the Bournemouth club.

Naturally, the young immature football player is hard to gain a foothold in the main part of the team, which has taken the course to fight for an exit in the highest division of the championship of England. Therefore, to gain experience and adjust his physical condition, he was forced, as a leased player, in the clubs "Aldershot" and "Djurgården." And if for the English team Teddy played only five fights, then in the championship of Sweden he played a beautiful season in 1985, where he scored 13 goals in 21 matches.

Since the season of 1985, Teddy Sheringham has been the main striker of Millwall and his top scorer for four years. In 1988 he together with the team made his debut in the top division of the English championship. Two years later, Millwall again dropped into the classroom, and Teddy began to think about changing the club. There was no longer any reason to remain here, since the leadership of the team did not put the maximum tasks before the club.

After playing for Millwall 8 years and scoring 111 goals, in the summer of 1991 the football player signed a contract with the team of Nottingham Forest. The deal amounted to 2 million pounds. Here he was remembered for being the author of the first ball of "Nittingham" in the newly formed English Premier League. The team itself, which rattled 10 years ago in Europe, was solving local tasks to preserve a place in the elite division, without claiming high tournament places, and Teddy could not alone pull the club up.

At the end of the first half of the 1992/93 championship, he transferred to the Tottenham Hotspur team for the same 2 million pounds. "Nottingham", not finding a worthy replacement for the departed striker, after the championship leaves the Premier League, and Teddy Sheringham becomes the best striker of the new team and the entire championship of England, scoring 22 goals. In "Tottenham" he received not only the recognition of fans, but turned into one of the strongest strikers in the history of English football.

And yet, despite the fact that Teddy's partners in the attack included players like Ronnie Rosenthal, Chris Armstrong, Jurgen Klinsmann, this team was far from winning at least some club trophy. Sheringham himself had 31 years behind him and not a single title.

In the summer of 1997, Teddy moved to the famous "Manchester United". "Tottenham" received 3.5 million pounds, and "Manchester" - the fourth striker (after York, Cole and Solsjayer) to strengthen the team. It is important to note here that the club began to earn trophies not least because of the excellent game of Teddy Sheringham. It was his goal that became a turning point in the conquest of the 1999 Champions League team. Well, then the titles on the head of the forward fell one after another. This is the win of the Intercontinental Cup, and numerous victories in the championship and the FA Cup.

In 2001, the term of the player's 4-year contract with United has expired. He was offered to extend the agreement for another year, but the striker, as a free agent, returned to Tottenham, where he played two more seasons. In total, for "spurs" he played 230 fights, in which scored 97 goals.

After Tottenham, Teddy played in Portsmouth. Here he distinguished himself by the fact that he made a hat-trick as the age-old player in the match with Bolton. Further there were performances in "West Ham".

Teddy helped the "hammers" to leave Championships in the Premier League and reach the final of the 2006 SC. The player himself copied the age-old records of English football. Finished football in a very modest club, "Colchester", who played in the Championship of England.

In conclusion, we note that the fans of the younger generation hardly know who the football player Teddy Shering is, under what number he played, what he remembered and achieved. Now other players are popular. A fan with the same experience, after hearing this name, will say that Teddy Sheringham (number 10 of the club "Manchester United") is the player who equalized the score on the 91st minute of the final match of the Champions League match with the Munich "Bavaria".
