Jim Baxter
Edit
Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson described Baxter as "arguably the best player to play in Scottish football.".

Signed for Sunderland in 1965 where he spent two years, making 67 appearances and scoring 10 goals.
Signed for Rangers in 1960 where he spent five years, making 136 appearances and scoring 18 goals.

Signed for Nottingham Forest in 1967 where he spent two years, making 48 appearances and scoring three goals.
Like some other British football stars of the late 20th century, Baxter drank to excess.
Signed for Raith Rovers in 1957 where he spent three years, making 62 appearances and scoring 3 goals.
