Matt Jansen is one of the most popular and richest Association Football Player who was born on October 20, 1977 in Wetheral, England, United Kingdom. Matthew Brooke Jansen, born 20 October 1977, is an English former professional footballer. He played as both a striker or as a manager.

Blackburn were demoted to the First Division by Jansen’s first year. However, he was the star of the team that won promotion to the Premier League in 2000-01. He finished as the league’s second highest scorer with 23 goals, just like Fulham’s Louis Saha. Blackburn’s League Cup final win against Tottenham Hotspur was his first goal. He was a good player and was called up to England for the friendly match against Paraguay. He was unable to attend the International match against Paraguay because of a stomach virus.

A motorcycle accident in Rome, Italy during the summer of 2002 nearly killed Jansen and long-term hospitalisation followed (he spent six days in a coma). In the seasons after the accident he struggled to regain his place in the Blackburn side which led to him being loaned to Coventry City in 2003, where he scored 2 goals in 9 appearances. He made another attempt to force his way into the Blackburn team at the start of the 2004–05 season, scoring 2 goals in 8 appearances. However, it was felt that he had still not recovered mentally from the accident and was struggling to cope with the pressures of Premier League football. As a result, Blackburn decided it best for him take another break from football and sent him to visit a sports psychiatrist in the US.

He started his career with hometown club Carlisle United, and also played for Crystal Palace, Blackburn Rovers and Bolton Wanderers as well as a loan spell with Coventry City. A goalscorer in Blackburn’s League Cup victory in 2002, his career declined after a near-fatal motorcycle accident later that year. He won six England under-21 caps and was called up once to the senior national team.

He was praised for his performance at Crystal Palace and earned him a move to Premier League side Blackburn Rovers, where he will be spending PS4.1 million. Jansen was a sign of things to follow when he scored against Tottenham Hotspur in his debut match in January 1999.
