Jan Molby arrived on Merseyside in the summer of 1984 for a ten-day trial with Joe Fagan’s Liverpool. He made his debut less than two weeks after his first training session.
The following season new player-manager Kenny Dalglish made him a proper first-team regular and he had his best campaign in red. A cult Liverpool player was born. In 2022 FourFourTwo named him the 35th best Liverpool player of all-time and the club's 27th best ever signing.
His 21-goals in 1985-86 culminated in a man-of-the-match performance in the first ever all-Merseyside FA Cup Final which Liverpool won 3-1. Molby had a hand in all three goals.
