Something to do with Gremlin Graphics this one (Future Knight on the boards at the back gave that one away), its not the Gary Lineker series I think as they were top down or angled like the current Fifa games and kind of looked like the Football Manager series where you watched the match.
I think it is Footballer of the Year 1 or 2

It was done by a software house that died with the Amiga, maybe a little sooner. They used to do loads of ports of Arcade Games for the 8 Bit machines. This game is also known by a different name in Asia albeit the same game on the tapes.
It didnt get rave reviews in magazines, scoring around the 60% mark, it is very similar to a game on one of the Sega Megadrive Collections available on Steam and a few other places. I used to love playing it as it was a bit different being a beat em up and scrolled vertically instead of horizontally.

Graphics remind me of Excelsior, but the text at the bottom doesn't fit at all...
So no idea :)
