Jamie Carragher
Liverpool FC
Liverpool FC legend Jamie Carragher has been awarded the 2025 One Club Man award. The English defender represented the Reds across a 17-year professional career at Anfield, making 737 appearances for the club between 1996 and 2013. He will receive the award at San Mamés during the build-up to the match between Athletic Club and Girona FC on 23 September.
Scouse born and bred
Carragher is the second highest appearance maker in Liverpool history, only bettered by Ian Callaghan, and above icons of the game like Steven Gerrard, Ray Clemence, Emlyn Hughes, Ian Rush, Phil Neal, Tommy Smith, Bruce Grobbelaar and Alan Hansen, among many others.
What’s more, Jamie, who recently gained a Maltese passport via his maternal grandfather, holds the English record for European appearances, having played a total of 150 matches in UEFA competitions.
The centre-back has an impressive trophy cabinet, featuring one Champions League (2004/05), one UEFA Cup (2000/01), two UEFA Super Cups (2001, 2005) and two FA Cups (2000/01, 2005/06), along with his 38 England caps.
Despite having to compete with the likes of John Terry and Rio Ferdinand for an England berth, Jamie was able to represent his nation at three major tournaments (World Cup 2006 and 2010, in addition to Euro 2004). If not for needing to undergo knee surgery, he probably would have been in Sven-Göran Eriksson’s squad for World Cup 2002 as well.
