Alan Merrick
ussoccerplayers.com/player/merrick-alanAn England youth team defender in the late 1960s, Alan Merrick played 156 times for West Bromwich Albion in the English First Division (now the Premier League) and other competitions before moving to the United States when a transfer to Southampton fell through and he was, in his own words “blackballed” by West Brom. Taking a vacation in Minnesota with his family, he liked it so much he decided to stay, and enjoyed two spells with the Minnesota Kicks in the NASL, making 115 appearances in all. … Merrick retired in 1983 and coached the Minnesota Strikers of the Major Indoor Soccer League for six years.
