9. Giuliano Grazioli

Giuliano Grazioli

In 1997, Stevenage were interested in Wembley FC striker Grazioli, but were not willing to pay over the odds for the half-Italian, half-Englishman.

However, doing transfer business that Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy would be proud of, the striker was signed for three Mars bars and a packet of crisps. Grazioli’s signature proved to be sweet indeed, as one of his more memorable goals came in the FA Cup against a Newcastle United team that had among its ranks Alan Shearer, whose transfer fee of £15 million had broken the world record at that time.
