Description:
John Aldridge was a prolific striker for Oxford United, Liverpool, Real Sociedad and Tranmere Rovers during the 1980s and 90s.
Signed by his boyhood idols Liverpool in 1987, to replace the Juventus-bound Ian Rush, "Aldo" became a Kop legend over the next two seasons, due as much to his passionate devotion to the club as to his record-breaking goalscoring feats. After Rush returned to Anfield, Aldridge was controversially deemed surplus to requirements, and became the first non-Basque player ever to sign for Real Sociedad. The goals continued to flow in La Liga, where Aldo became known and feared as... "El Zorro" (The Fox).
Aldo was also an integral part of the Republic of Ireland team that qualified for Euro 88 and the World Cups in 1990 and 1994. Famously, he failed to score in his first 20 games for Ireland, but finished his international career with a creditable 19 goals in 69 caps, including an unforgettable clash with FIFA officialdom and defiant headed goal against Mexico in the furness of Orlando.
