Peter James Crouch (born 30 January 1981 in Macclesfield, England) is an English footballer who currently plays as a striker for Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur and the England national team.

Crouch started his career as a trainee with Tottenham. However he failed to make a first team appearance for the club, leaving it in 2000 and playing for several teams including four Premier League clubs — Portsmouth, Aston Villa, Southampton and Liverpool — before returning and finally making his senior Tottenham debut in 2009.[2] He was the second top-scorer in the 2006–07, Champions League season, behind AC Milan's Kaká.
Early life
Crouch was born in Macclesfield, Cheshire, but his family moved to Singapore when he was one year old, where they stayed for three years before returning to Great Britain and settling in London. A keen footballer from an early age, he became a ball boy at the age of ten.[3] As a child, he attended some Chelsea games.[4] Later, he told the Liverpool official website that despite this, he and his friends at the time were fans of Queens Park Rangers.[5]

After attending North Ealing Primary School, and Drayton Manor High School in Hanwell, Crouch signed a professional contract with Tottenham Hotspur on 2 July 1998, after having played for their youth side.[6] However, he did not make any appearances for their first team and was loaned out to other clubs, having brief spells at Dulwich Hamlet in the Isthmian League and, in the summer of 2000, IFK Hässleholm in Sweden.[7]

[edit] QPR and Portsmouth
On 28 July 2000, Tottenham sold Crouch to Queens Park Rangers (QPR) for £60,000.[6] He made an immediate impression with QPR, scoring ten league goals in the 2000–01 season, but it was not enough to prevent the team's relegation to Division 2 (now Football League One).

Relegation meant that QPR had to sell many of their best players to support their diminished finances, and Portsmouth bought Crouch from them for £1.25 million. Crouch scored 18 league goals in 37 starts for Portsmouth — benefiting from the crossing of Robert Prosinečki — and that in a side that for much of the season looked destined for mid-table medi
