Iago Aspas is often remembered for his disastrous spell with Liverpool during which he struggled to get on the pitch particularly because of the superior form of Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge.

However, the Spaniard has come a long way since. He made a loan move to Sevilla in 2014-15, winning the Europa League with them but in 2015, he returned to Celta Vigo, the club that made him.

In his first season back, he went on to score 18 times in 40 games across all competitions. The following season, He took the tally to 26 goals in 49 games while also winning the Zarra Trophy for 2016/17.

His rich form also earned him a place in the Spain national team and he still gets picked up as a backup to for the likes of Alvaro Morata. On his debut for Spain were 2-0 down to England, he came on as a substitute and scored a spectacular goal to open La Roja’s account. His side went on to draw the game eventually.

Aspas has ensured that he is not remembered for his dreadful corner against Chelsea while playing for Liverpool.
