Celebrity footballers on camera, taking centre (4)
I believe the answer is:
fame
'celebrity' is the definition.
('fame' can be a synonym of 'celebrity')
'footballers on camera taking centre' is the wordplay.
'footballers' becomes 'fa' (Football Association abbreviation).
'on' says to put letters next to each other.
'taking centre' indicates the central letters.
The middle letters of 'camera' are 'me'.
'fa'+'me'='FAME'
(Other definitions for fame that I've seen before include "Favourable public reputation" , "Notoriety or celebrity" , "Musical - stardom" , "Repute" , "Celebrity; stage musical" .)
