Dean Saunders is the latest guest to join the Aldo Meets podcast for episode 22. We dive deep into Dean's playing career with the reds, winning trophies and so much more you don't want to miss out on.
Dean Saunders arrived at Anfield in the summer of 1991, joining Liverpool from Derby County for a British record fee of £2.9 million. His move reflected the high regard in which he was held as one of the most exciting and hard-working strikers in British football.
Saunders made an instant impact in Europe, famously scoring four goals on his debut in a UEFA Cup tie against Kuusysi Lahti. He went on to finish as Liverpool’s leading scorer in that competition, helping the Reds progress to the quarter-finals. His pace, tireless running, and willingness to press defenders quickly made him a popular figure with supporters, as he brought great energy and commitment to Graeme Souness’s forward line alongside the legendary Ian Rush.
In domestic football, Saunders contributed important goals and played his part in a transitional period for Liverpool, as the club blended experienced names with new arrivals. Although his stay lasted just one season, he still managed an impressive 25 goals in 61 appearances across all competitions – a strike rate that underlined his quality and professionalism.
