Manchester City’s top 13 all-time goalscorers
By Cody Griffin
8) Tommy Browell
Born in 1892, Tommy Browell started his professional footballing career purely through his family name – his two brothers played for Hull City at the time and likely helped him earn his chance to play. Browell did not disappoint early on in his career, scoring a hat trick at the inexperienced age of 18.
Browell went on to join Everton a season later, and spent two full seasons there before Manchester City acquired him for a little under £2,000. Browell spent the next 13 years playing for City, and although no major titles to speak of were won during his tenure, he set the bar for many other players in England, scoring 139 goals during his time in Manchester.
After playing in 247 matches for City, Browell was sold to Blackpool to finish out his career at age 34. He remained playing football for Blackpool until turning 38, when he was let go. Browell would go on to be a taxi driver until his death in 1955.
