John Charles features at number 2 in our 100 Greatest Leeds players ever.
The 'Gentle Giant' is regarded as being the greatest Leeds player outside the Revie era. Signed at 16 within 3 months he had made his league debut. As a centre half no one could beat him in the air and as a centre forward he was lethal. Voted the greatest ever foreign player to play for Juventus, winning 3 Italian league medals with the club, holds the scoring record in a season for Leeds United with 42 league goals in 1953-54 and the youngest ever Welsh international when he got his first of his 38 cap at only 18. He made 327 league and cup appearances for Leeds scoring 157 goals.
