Benjani Mwaruwari


Published on Wednesday 28 February 2007 11:36

The Zimbabwe striker arrived as Pompey's then-record signing in a £4.4m deal from Auxerre in 2006.

The 29-year-old had to wait an agonising 15 games before he scored his first goal in a blue shirt - a crucial header which helped the Blues complete the Great Escape at Wigan.

Benjani hit six goals last season but really caught fire at the start of this campaign - hitting nine goals before Christmas and topping the Premier League goal charts for long periods.
