Born in Belfast, Best began his club career in England with Manchester. United, with the scout who had spotted his talent at the age of 15. Sending a telegram to manager Matt Busby which read: I think I’ve. Found you a genius. After making his debut aged 17, he scored 179. Goals from 470 appearances over 11 years and was the club’s top.

He is regarded as one of the greatest players never to have played at. The Irish Football Association described him as the. “Greatest player to ever pull on the green shirt of Northern Ireland”. With his good looks, dark Beatle mop-top hair and playboy lifestyle. Best became one of the first media celebrity footballers, earning the.
