An Evening with Sir Les Ferdinand

Les Ferdinand

One of the Premier League’s most prolific strikers, Les currently lies 8th in the all-time list of goalscorers, with 149 goals to his name, one behind Michael Owen. In all competitions he netted over 200 times at senior level, with an average just under a goal every two games. Les played for a total of 6 different Premier League clubs, but his most prolific years were spent at his beloved QPR, Newcastle Utd and Spurs. Loved wherever he played, he is particularly fondly remembered by the Toon Army, where his two season spell was filled with goals. He played on 17 occasions for England, scoring 5 times, and was part of both the Euro ’96 and France ’98 squads – he would surely have won many more in other eras but was battling against Alan Shearer as a classic no.9. From early 2015 to 2023, Les was Director of Football at QPR, where he served his first senior club with distinction.
