Jeff Eckhardt is one of the most popular and richest Football Player who was born on October 7, 1965 in Sheffield, England, United Kingdom.
Born in Sheffield, Eckhardt grew up supporting his hometown side Sheffield United and later joined the youth system at the club as a teenager. After a number of reserve team players were required to travel with the first-team, Eckhardt was handed an opportunity to play for the reserves against Coventry City, during which he impressed enough to be offered a two-year deal by manager Martin Peters. During the 1985–86 season, he was roommates with Ray Lewington who promised Eckhardt that when he became a manager he would sign him for his team, fulfilling the promise two years later when Lewington took charge of Fulham. Although he turned down Lewington’s initial approach in 1986 as he was playing regularly for the first-team, he later accepted the move in November 1987 after being dropped, joining for a fee of £50,000.
He made his debut for Fulham on 21 November 1987 in a 2–0 victory over Rotherham United. After joining the club as a centre-back, Eckhardt gradually adapted to several different positions and became known for his versatility, playing as both a midfielder and a forward during his time at Craven Cottage. He went on to make over 250 appearances for Fulham in all competitions, during a six-year spell at the club and was appointed club captain. At the end of the 1993–94 season, the team suffered relegation to the Third Division and Eckhardt decided to accept an offer from Stockport County manager Danny Bergara. During his time at Stockport, he won promotion to the First Division. He scored his only career hat-trick for the club during a match against Lincoln City, a game in which he also played in goal after an injury to their goalkeeper.
