Tottenham Hotspur Foreign Players 1992-2013

[MyFootbalFacts]

This is a table of all 84 Foreign (non-British & Irish Isles) Players from 43 different countries who have made at least one Premier League appearance for Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League from season 1992-93 to 2012-13.

Foreign Players who were on Spurs books but only played in other competitions, or failed to make any first team appearances, are not included.

We probably don't have many pre-1992, off the top of my head:

Ardiles, Villa
Claesen
Chiedozie

Anyone else?

Max Seeburg was a German player on our books in the Southern League Era and the first season of the Football League in 1908-09.

I'm pretty sure he was the first Foreigner with Spurs, although Walter Tull might also be in with a shout, as he was half West Indian (his father was from Barbados).

Surprised that Iversen is our second highest appearance maker...and his goals per game record is better than I remembered.

I mapped the birthplaces of all the players and turned it into an interactive map you can play with here:

Blue disks are appearances, white squares are goals. Since Admin will probably not let me embed an iframe, here's a picture:

If you click on the disks in the interactive version, it tells you who it is, blah blah.
