Kevin Keegan is one of England's most celebrated internationals – featuring as a player and manager for his country.

He made his full international debut in 1972 against Wales at Ninian Park. He went on to score his first goal for his country against the Welsh in May 1974, where England were victorious, 2-0.

In ten years as a senior international he was capped 63 times (31 as captain) and scored 21 goals.

Keegan's impressive spell at Liverpool included, winning a European Cup and three League Championships, not to mention scoring 100 goals for the club in the process. At his next club, Hamburg, he was twice voted European Player of the Year.

His final appearance for his country was a brave performance against Spain in the 1982 World Cup, a game which ended goalless.

He took the reigns as England Head Coach in 1999 - after success in charge of Newcastle and Fulham.

'King Kev' got off to a perfect start in his new managerial role as he led the Three Lions to a comfortable 3-1 win over Poland, keeping England's Euro 2000 qualification dream alive.

Continued decent results in qualification, including a 2-1 aggregate Play-Off win over Scotland, were enough for England to qualify for Euro 2000, where they were drawn in a tricky group containing Portugal, Romania and Germany.

Following an unexpected early exit from the tournament, and a disappointing one-nil defeat at home to Germany at the start of the 2002 World Cup qualifying campaign, Keegan resigned as England manager.

A proud player and coach, Keegan was famed for always giving his all for the cause and will is recognised as one of football’s key and best-liked figures of the modern game.
