Kevin Keegan Dies at 75

Kevin Keegan, the former Liverpool, Newcastle and England football legend, has died at the age of 75 after a battle with stage four cancer.

The two-time Ballon d’Or winner was a hero on Tyneside and a pivotal figure in English football, known for his flamboyant style and success as both player and manager.

Tributes poured in from across the sporting world, with former teammates and clubs honouring his legacy.

Keegan revealed his diagnosis only last month, and his death marks the end of an era for a man who transcended the game with his celebrity status.
