Zat Knight

He is an English football player. He plays as a centre back.

Zatyiah "Zat" Knight (born May 2, 1980 in Solihull, West Midlands) is an English footballer currently playing for Aston Villa. He is a very imposing figure, standing at 6 feet 6 inches.
Fulham signed Knight from Rushall Olympic in exchange for 30 tracksuits. As Knight was not a professionally contracted player to Olympic, Fulham were not obliged to pay a fee for him and sent the clothing as a gesture of thanks.
Zat scored four goals for Fulham, two in the 2004-05 in English football season and two in the 2006-07 season. The first in a FA Cup match against Watford in a 1–1 draw, his second an FA Premiership goal against Norwich City in a 6–0 win. His last goal for Fulham came against Bolton Wanderers in a 2–1 loss. He was arguably Fulham's most consistent player in the 2006-07 season, a reward for this being given temporary captaincy of the club while regular skipper Luís Boa Morte was out injured.
Before the game against West Ham United it was announced that he had broken his jaw in two places after messing around with his brother. Chris Coleman has been quoted as saying that it takes more than horseplay to break one's jaw in two places, but Knight insists there is "nothing sinister" about the incident.
On 29 August 2007, Knight signed a four year contract deal with Aston Villa in a £3.5 million deal. In the early hours of the same day (29 August), Knight, along with his brother Carlos, was arrested in a drugs raid on the family home. Knight was released on police bail while Carlos was remanded in custody. Police said that a quantity of drugs were seized at the home. Knight feared that he may miss the press conference announcing his signing but his agent bailed him out and no mention of the incident was made at the press conference. Knight scored a headed goal on his Villa debut in a 2–0 win against Chelsea on 2 September, 2007.
He made his England debut on May 28, 2005 as a substitute against the United States in a friendly match. He gained his second cap in a friendly against Columbia on 31 May 2005.
