DARREN HUCKERBY

As Manchester City battled against relegation from the Premier League in 2001, Joe Royle sought to add more firepower to his squad. From Leeds United, in came Darren Huckerby - a pacy centre-forward with an eye for a goal. Injury meant he wasn't able to play a crucial role in that end of season fight, but he came back better than before as Kevin Keegan's new-look City romped to the Division One title in 2001-02. Huckerby was a key part of that team, which scored bags of goals on their return to the top flight. In 2019, he spoke to David Mooney about his City career.
