'To the new generation I'm just the crisp bloke': Gary Lineker says he ENJOYS having his football records broken because it acts as a reminder that he played... instead of just being recognised for his Walkers adverts!

England legend Gary Lineker has revealed he ENJOYS seeing his goalscoring records broken - as it reminds people he was a footballer and not just the face of Walkers!

Lineker secured numerous achievements as a professional, including promotion with Leicester, an FA Cup triumph at Tottenham, and a Copa del Rey trophy at Barcelona.

With England, he won the Golden Boot at the 1986 World Cup and scored more World Cup finals goals than any other Englishman, while he also finished second in the Ballon d'Or running in 1986.
