Default World Class players who've played in North Wales (inc Wxm)

Here are a few world class players who've played in North Wales, mostly at the Racecourse. Clearly there are more than this and I'd be interested to hear of any others. I'm sure there'll be a few!

Falcao and Junior, both part of the legendary 1982 Brazilian World Cup team (said to be the best team never to win the the trophy) both played for AS Roma at the Racecourse against Wrexham in 1984

Yes falcao was the name that came into my head, in 1985 i think it was, there was no chance that a young global star in the making would be playing for a big teams reserve side on the pitches of north wales.
Roll on 10 20 years and I'm sure there may be a few more hidden gems that graced the playing fields of north wales. Must have been a few superstars in the making played at the racecourse for U21 teams over the years before they hit the big time.
Sure seedorf played at the racecourse the list will probably be long. Pique at Lllangefni is a cracker wonder if shaqira was there watching.
