If we had to highlight only one aspect of Gary Lineker as a footballer, we would say that he was a pure goal-scorer, the striker par excellence. What you are about to witness in this Barça Legends is every goal he scored during his three seasons with Barça, goals that reinforce our definition of Lineker as a footballer.
What is good about Gary is that he left much more than just goals. Those who knew him well always talk about an easy-going person, someone kind with a great sense of humour. All his teammates from his time with Barça always highlight his qualities as a man, as a gentleman who after his football career has developed another one with the media, thanks to legendary shows such as BBC’s Match of the Day, of which he is the host.
