Eric Black is one of the most popular and richest Association Football Player who was born on October 1, 1963 in Bellshill, Scotland.
Black was involved in possibly the best era ever for Aberdeen who, under the management of Sir Alex Ferguson, won the European Cup Winners’ Cup in 1983 with a 2–1 win over Real Madrid in which the then 19-year-old Black scored the first goal. Black’s main asset was his balletic heading ability and scoring goals. In February 1983, Black scored a hat-trick in a 3–1 win against Celtic. He made 180 league appearances (30 as substitute) and scored 70 goals for Aberdeen between 1981 and 1986.
That same year, Black joined Metz in France. After five seasons (1986–1991) with Metz, during which he won the 1988 French Cup and had two children, Black was forced to retire prematurely from the game due to a chronic back problem. Alex Ferguson later admitted that injury problems suffered by Black and other young players he had managed at Aberdeen were due to them playing an excessive number of games at a young age. In all, Black made 85 appearances for Metz, scoring 26 goals.
