Versatile midfielder Quinton Fortune is one of the most successful players to come out of South Africa. Gifted with a tremendous work ethic and a crisp crosser of the ball that also had the ability to pose problems from free-kicks Quinton Fortune will be best remembered for his stint at Manchester United.

Fortune who earned 46 caps for South Africa also had impressive outing for Bafana Bafana, representing his native land at the 1998 and 2002 world cups.

An image of Fortune gliding his way past France great Zinedine Zidane is an image that many S.A footballers would envy given the stature of the player he is captured with.
