Brian Greenhoff is one of the most popular and richest Football Player who was born on April 28, 1953 in Barnsley, United Kingdom.
Greenhoff was brought to Manchester United as one of the last of the Busby Babes, scouted by Joe Armstrong – his childhood affinity with United, due to Barnsley born Tommy Taylor starring, played a huge role in persuading him to join the European Champions despite interest from the more local club Rotherham United, managed by Tommy Docherty. A succession of injuries prevented him from making his debut as a teenager until Docherty took over at Old Trafford. Upon greeting Greenhoff, Tommy exclaimed, “I’ve got you at last. The long way round, but I’ve got you at last.” Following his debut at Portman Road, Greenhoff was essentially an ever-present, one of the most vital components of Docherty’s exciting young team. Despite relegation in the 1973/74 season, Greenhoff’s performances had been one of the few plusses, causing him to be named the Supporters Player of the Season.
Greenhoff was born in Barnsley, and as a youngster played for Yorkshire Schoolboys. He joined Manchester United as a youth player in August 1968, and made his first-team debut against Ipswich Town on 8 September 1973. He helped Manchester United win the 1977 FA Cup, by which time he had developed a partnership with Martin Buchan in central defence. He was very versatile, starting his career as a midfielder and finishing it as a centre back of international class. Greenhoff scored 17 goals in his Manchester United career and played 271 games between 1973 and 1979. His brother, Jimmy, also played for Manchester United.
