Who was the first football player to have been the top scorer in England with three different clubs?

Gary Winston Lineker (born 30 November 1960) is an English former professional footballer and current sports broadcaster. He holds England's record for goals in the FIFA (Fédération Internationale de Football Association ) World Cup finals, with 10 scored.

Lineker made his England debut in 1984, earning 80 caps and scoring 48 goals over an eight-year international career, and is England's third-highest scorer, behind Bobby Charlton and Wayne Rooney.

He is also the only player to have been the top scorer in England with three clubs (Leicester City, Everton and Tottenham Hotspur).

He began his career at his home town club Leicester City after leaving school in 1977. He was the First Division's joint top scorer in 1984–85 with 24 goals.

In the 1985 close season, defending league champions Everton signed Lineker for £800,000. He scored 40 goals in 57 games for his new team in the 1985–86 season. He was again the First Division's leading goal scorer, this time with 30 goals.

Lineker signed for Tottenham Hotspur in July 1989 for £1.1 million. Over three seasons, he scored 67 goals in 105 league games and won the FA Cup while playing for the club. He finished as top scorer in the First Division in the 1989–90 season, scoring 24 goals as Spurs finished third.
