Bobby Moore played for a US club (cosmos?)

Also played in that team with Ardiles and Pele with Stallone in goals.
 
Charles played in Italy. I think it was Juventus. He must have been the first notable British player to have a successful football career abroad.

Law also, didn't he briefly play in Italy between Manchester clubs.

I wouldn't be surprised if Barnes played in the US.
