Let's make this birthday one to remember.

42 years old (Born on October 07, 1982)

Happy Birthday, Jermain Defoe! You're aging like fine wine—still sharp enough to score goals faster than most of us can tie our shoes. From your unforgettable hat-tricks at Tottenham Hotspur to that legendary volley for Sunderland against Newcastle, you've given fans countless reasons to cheer (and rivals plenty of nightmares).

Even off the pitch, you're scoring big with charity work and inspiring young footballers everywhere. Here's hoping this birthday brings you as much joy as you've brought England supporters over the years—and may your celebrations be more memorable than a last-minute winner in extra time!
