You May Remember Yakubu from…
All sorts of Premier League clubs.
Yakubu played a role in Portsmouth’s successful Premier League promotion campaign and two subsequent Premier League seasons in 2003-04 and 2004-05. He plied his trade at Middlesbrough for two seasons and secured a move to Everton. Yakubu stayed at Everton from 2008 to the end of the 2010 calendar year. For 2011 he moved to the Championship playing with Leicester City, but he returned to the Premier League the following season to play for the ill-fated Blackburn Rovers.
