Which former Burnley and Man Utd player spurned the offer of a move to Man City - and is now making a name for himself in Australia?

 

[Bolton's Boots]

He switched from football to another team sport - in which his team is currently 'top of the pile'.

Herbie Farnworth?

Never heard of him!

That's him - Herbert Felix Farnworth. Admittedly, his Burnley and Man Utd careers were at youth level ) but he was approached by both Man City and Brisbane Broncos at the same time - and chose to go to the latter straight after leaving school in 2017. He's been a first team fixture for them since 2020, and made his England debut last year in the World Cup, scoring three tries in four games - currently one off the best centres in the game.

Over to you.
