Transferred from Karlsruhe
to Liverpool in summer 1998 for 2,000,000 pounds.
Transferred from Liverpool to VFB Stuttgart in summer
1999 for 1,000,000 pounds.
PROFILE
South African striker Sean Dundee has been labelled in certain quarters as quite
possibly the worst player to have ever donned the red of Liverpool.
Signed by Roy Evans from German side Karlsruhe for 2 million pounds in the summer
of 1998, German national Dundee arrived at Anfield just before Gerard Houllier arrived as
joint manager.
Dundee had publicly declared in a newspaper interview that he was "as fast as
Michael Owen." Liverpool fans would soon find out that this was not to be the case.
The signing was a strange one of sorts because his previous season saw him score
just three goals in Karlsruhe's relegation to Division Two.
Dundee made his Liverpool debut pre-season in 1998 in a friendly 3-1 win at Crewe
Alexandra, coming on as a half time substitute for Karl-Heinz Riedle. Liverpool fans then
got a better glimpse of him when he appeared in the Carlsberg Challenge tournament in
Belfast with Liverpool.
First impressions of Dundee was a very tall striker but not exactly setting the
world alight. When season 1998-99 kicked-off Dundee was in the reserve team before
appearing on the first team bench for a UEFA Cup tie against Valencia at Anfield.
He made his debut as a late substitute for Michael Owen in the Worthington Cup win
over Fulham at Anfield in October. After another substitute appearance in Valencia he was
then out of Houllier's first team until the end of April, when he made three substitute
appearances but looked completely out of his depth.
His sale to VFB Stuttgart at the end of the season brought an end to his Liverpool
nightmare.. |
