Sinopsis de KEEGAN

A marvellous tribute to one of the great characters of English football.TIMES
Fascinating. . . [Keegan] was the best footballer of his generation.OBSERVER
He shone as a player and struggled as a manager - but theres much more to that narrative, as this sprightly biography proves.TELEGRAPH



From the author of Klopp, a funny and insightful look at one of Britains greatest and strangest football greats.

He was stranger than he knew - than any of us knew.


England captain. Mercurial competitor. Pop star manqué. The Face of Brut 33. Pioneer of the footballers perm. Twice winner of the Ballon dOr. Kevin Keegan owned the 1970s. We had never seen his like before. There appeared to be nothing he could fail at.

Tracking his career from youth-team player at Scunthorpe to the England managers job, by way of Liverpool, Newcastle and Hamburg, Keegan considers the extravagant highs of a football man who touched the game with genius, who was never sacked and who came within an ace of triumph as a manager. A story of almost and maybe, of excellence and of failure, it is a story too, perhaps, of the fans quixotic search for a messiah.

Praise for Klopp:
An elegiac memoir [and] a love letter to the great man himself.The Times
Delightful . . . perfectly captures the mans endearing likeability.Mail on Sunday
