No, Jimmy Greaves was not the first British player to play abroad. The distinction of being the first British footballer to play internationally is often attributed to players from the late 19th century, such as Arthur Wharton and others who played in various leagues across Europe. Greaves, a prolific striker, is more renowned for his domestic achievements in English football rather than being a pioneer of playing abroad.
