Henrik Larsson born (1971)
Henrik Larsson's 2000-01 season for Celtic remains one of the great individual campaigns in Scottish football — 53 goals in all competitions as he swept every domestic trophy and claimed the European Golden Shoe. He finished as Celtic's third-highest scorer of all time before a late-career cameo at Barcelona, where he set up both goals in their 2006 Champions League final win.

Julian Draxler born (1993)
Julian Draxler was Schalke 04's brightest academy graduate before a big-money move to Wolfsburg and then Paris Saint-Germain, where he settled into a bit-part role but still collected four Ligue 1 titles — a career that never quite hit the heights predicted when he was tipped as Germany's next great No.10.
