Fred Erentz

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fred Erentz (January 1, 18701938 in Dundee) was a Scottish footballer.[1] Erentz played for Dundee Our Boys, before being transferred to Newton Heath, in June 1892.[1] Originally a half-back, he quickly changed to a left-back role. Debuting on September 3, 1892 against Blackburn,[1] he scored nine goals in 303 appearances for the Heathens before retiring in June 1902, a decade after he joined the club. His departure came around the time that financially-troubled Newton Heath were renamed Manchester United. Making 303 appearances for Manchester United, he is the No. 46 most capped player in the team's history.[2]
