Wes' Profile
A naturally talented centre-half, Brown seemed destined for stardom when he broke into the Manchester United line-up at the tender age of 18.
The born a bred Mancunian had already won The FA Youth Cup when he appeared as a substitute against Leeds in May 1998, but Brown went on to achieve great things the following year.
Having struck up an excellent partnership with Jaap Stam, Brown won a historical treble with The Reds, culminating in a wonderful night in Barcelona.
Cruelly injuries hampered Brown’s development and, despite being named in England’s World Cup 2002 squad, the United defender has been forced to battle back from a number of set-backs.
But a run in the United side and a return to form helped Brown get an international recall under Steve McClaren.
