Michael Owen Biography
Michael
Owen is a striker currently playing for Manchester United.
He has been mainly
used as a substitute since his arrival on a free transfer in the summer of 2009
but that this has not prevented him from making an impact at Old Trafford, with
an injury-time winner against fierce rivals Manchester City, a brilliant
hat-trick against Wolfsburg and a goal in the 2010 Carling Cup final winning
over Red Devils fans.
Michael started his career at Liverpool and made a
sensational breakthrough into senior football, scoring on his debut in 1997
aged just 17 and going on to net over 150 times for the Merseyside club before
departing for Real Madrid in 2004.
His time in the Spanish capital was limited
to just one season and 15 starts, but his searing pace, intelligent movement
and accurate finishing still saw him score 18 times, enough to prompt Newcastle
United to bring him back to England.
While Michael's time with the Magpies was
blighted by injury and his pace understandably became less of a factor with
age, his prowess in the penalty box was enough to persuade Sir Alex Ferguson
that he would be a valuable addition to his strike force.
In 89 appearances for his country Michael has scored 40 goals, placing him fourth in the list of all-time England goalscorers, although his last cap came against France in March 2008.
