He is one of the few ex-Metros to score in Champions League? The list must be short (Adams, duh, but who else?)...

 

Emphasis on "ex-", so Titi doesn't count.

He's not "ex" but i believe Royer scored in champions league qualifying.   Also, donadoni, matthaus, henry?  EDIT: i just saw your note about Titi not counting.  Why is that?

I meant who scored in CL AFTER their Metro career.

 

I just went through FBRef archive, and it looks to be only Adams and Abang.

 

CL scorers before coming to Metro: Donadoni, Lothar, Djorkaeff, Henry, Celades, Schopp, Rafa, Juninho, SWP, Kljestan.

He's got ten more years until he's 38 to shock us all


If you scan YouTube looking for Bradley Wright-Phillips, youll find numerous goal compilations, a few interviews and, eventually, an excerpt from the grime mixtape series Lord of the Mics.

I heard he was Freddy Adu's brother.

Missed a bunch of stuff here, since FBref.com does not do qualifying stats.

 

Since we're counting Abang, we need to count CL qualifiers. Gulbrandsen scored for Salzburg right after we released him. The list of pre-scorers expands to include Royer (against Icelandic powerhouse FH Hafnarfjördur), Solli, and... Reyna.

 

I also missed Branco, who scored for Porto in 1990, pre-Champions League, and Luyindula, who scored in CL proper.

Every time I google him he's at a new club.

 

Just signed for Portimonense in the Portuguese top division.
