10 Premier League strikers that proved age doesn't matter

(#8 Tony Yeboah (Leeds United))

Leeds v Liverpool

The Ghanaian joined Leeds United in January 1995 from German side Frankfurt for £3.4 million having finished the previous two seasons as the top scorer in the Bundesliga. While many casual fans would be forgiven for not knowing who he was when he first arrived at Elland Road, his penchant for scoring wonder goals ensured he could not be forgotten by the time he left two years later. In his second season at the club he scored two of the greatest Premier League goals of all time – a pair of sublime volleys against Liverpool and Wimbledon. He was also named Leeds’ Player of the Year. A combination of injuries and the arrival of a new manager who did not seem to favour Yeboah led to his stay at the club being cut short as he was sold shortly after the start of the 1997/98 season to Hamburger SV. During his two and a half years at Elland Road he managed a decent return with 32 goals in 66 games but more importantly contributed two of the most iconic strikes in Premier League history.
