Furthermore, his playing career is best remembered for his seven seasons at Liverpool; where he won five League Championships, three European Cups and four League Cups.

Souness’ time at Anfield began in January 1978 as a replacement for veteran Ian Callaghan. After winning his first European Cup in 1977, Liverpool memorabilia manager Bob Paisley sought reinforcements by signing three Scottish players. All of whom were to contribute substantially to further success. Central defender Alan Hansen arrived from Partick Thistle for £110,000. Kenny Dalglish – an established Scottish international – signed from Celtic memorabilia for a then British record fee of £440,000. Besides, Souness formed the final part of the Scottish triumvirate. Leaving Middlesbrough in acrimonious circumstances for a club-record fee of £350,000 on 10 January 1978.

His first goal – a volley from just inside the penalty box; eventually awarded fans’ goal of the season – came in a 3–1 win over bitter rivals Manchester United at Anfield on 25 February 1978.

Also, Graeme Souness autographs played a critical role in Liverpool’s retention of the European Cup against FC Bruges in 1978 at Wembley Stadium, providing the pass for Kenny Dalglish Memorabilia to score the match’s only goal.
