Description
This biography presents the life of Roy Keane, one of the most notorious players on the football pitch. His dramatic exit from the World Cup 2002 found him in the glare of publicity once more, as he was sent home before Ireland had even finished training. Keane's disputes with the Ireland manager forced him to miss the chance to captain his country in football's greatest tournament. This book reveals the inside story of the World Cup fiasco, Keane's glittering career from humble beginnings playing for local Irish clubs, to the glory of captaining Manchester United, plus the inside stories on his life off the pitch.
