Keane - O'Callaghan, Eoin

. .

Résumé :
In the late 1980s a pint-sized teenager was making his mark at Rockmount AFC, but no one predicted that he would go on to become one of the most famous players in the world. This is the story of Roy Keane's rise to greatness, from those early days in Cork, and with Cobh Ramblers, to his time at Nottingham Forest under the charismatic, but eccentric Brian Clough, who recognised something great in his new Irish acquisition. Simultaneously, Keane was also trying to break into a Republic of Ireland set-up that seemed determined to ignore his talent. Keane: Origins illuminates this largely unheralded period of Keane's career, as well as the off-field dramas that inevitably arose as a wider audience sat up and took note of a new footballing sensation.
