Kevin Keegan left Liverpool FC for Hamburg SV in 1977 [Reuters]Liverpool legend Kevin Keegan became a "bridge between two great cities", Liverpool City Region Mayor Steve Rotheram has said in a letter written to the mayor of Hamburg.Keegan, who died on Monday aged 75, left Liverpool FC in 1977 to join Hamburg SV. He was due to visit the German city with Rotheram for its annual Harbour festival, the mayor revealed.In the letter Rotheram wrote that the cancer diagnosis meant the former England striker was unable to travel.One of the most decorated English players of all time, winning the Ballon d'Or twice, he lifted seven major honours - including the club's first European Cup on his final appearance. It was after this Keegan made the move to Germany.In the letter, seen by Local Democracy Reporting Service, Rotheram said: "For one half of our football-mad city, Kevin was a footballing hero, for the other, a well-respected irritant on derby day. "He was not just a Liverpool FC legend and one of the most beloved figures our city has ever known."When Kevin left our shores for Germany in 1977, he did more than make a then-record transfer between two football clubs. He built a bridge between two great cities."He said that Keegan's success belonged equally to Liverpool and Hamburg where he was both "admired and loved", adding, "To me, he embodied better than anyone else that famous maxim: football is the people's game."Rotheram read a message from Keegan at Hamburg's harbour festival in May [Claire Hamilton/BBC]He also paid tribute to Keegan's efforts to forge a relationship between the cities that "remains strong to this day" with his career celebrated as part of a special exhibition highlighting the links between Liverpool and Hamburg. "As you may remember, Kevin wrote some words for me to convey to the large audience at the Liverpool City Region pavilion back in May," Rotheram said.He added: "Despite my pidgin German and broad Scouse accent, they received a warm response. Kevin may have left both cities many years ago, but he never truly left our hearts."He was intending to join us at your port anniversary celebrations - the Hafengeburtstag - until his cancer diagnosis changed his plans. "He was devastated not to be attending, but he did provide me with a personal note that I felt honoured to read out on the Liverpool stage on the banks of the Elbe."Rotheram shared Keegan's message to Hamburg in his letter to their Mayor, Dr Peter Tschentscher. He wrote: "In Kevin's words, once again: Forgive my Plattdeutsch, but I love Hamburg."On behalf of the people of Liverpool, we send our deepest condolences to Kevin's friends, the HSV family and the people of Hamburg. Thank you for loving him as we did. You'll Never Walk Alone."Listen to the best of BBC Radio Merseyside on Sounds and follow BBC Merseyside on Facebook, X, and Instagram.

Libi Phillips and Will Bishop met while playing U14s wheelchair basketball [BBC Sport]After narrowly missing out on Birmingham four years ago, Wales' men and women are making Commonwealth Games debuts in the wheelchair 3x3 basketball in Glasgow.The teams received wildcards after finishing second in their respective qualifying finals.In a tight-knit Wales squad, the men's and women's team are united in more than one way.Libi Phillips and Will Bishop met playing the sport at under-14s level and have been together for six years.Their relationship has blossomed along with their basketball ability."We've come through the whole journey together," said Bishop. "It's a full circle moment, a real pinnacle. I'm really proud to do it and see how we progress together."Wales at the Commonwealth GamesPhillips, 20, says she's "really proud" of the efforts from the team."We gave it our very best in 2022. We were very young and inexperienced. Now it's different and we've qualified for the first time, that's huge," she said."We've come so far in such a short space of time and it just shows the work we've put in was worth it."The pair say the speed of game makes it appealing."I love the violence, it's physical, it's fun and non-stop," said 21-year-old Bishop."You've got to be decisive, it's good to watch because of that."Phillips added: "You get to be more greedy in a way. Twelve seconds from when you get the ball, you're supposed to score."The first shot you see, just take it, because you're going to get another one in 12 seconds. It's very, very quick compared to five on five."Phillips hopes the team can inspire the next generation of athletes."At eight years old, I was very anxious," she said. "I wasn't really accepting of my chair because I didn't have any role models."My parents were always great and identified that sport was what that could be."The sport has given me confidence, I found family, community, everything. I found Will as well, also great!"Without basketball, without sport, I don't know where I'd be. I'd be very sad."You can learn so much about disability as a whole from this one sport. For young kids, even if you're not into sport, just seeing representation on your screen at home means a lot."It meant a lot to me growing up and I'm excited to be the person they see."Bishop, who won bronze in the T38 long jump at the 2023 Youth Commonwealth Games in Trinidad and Tobago, is thrilled that the teams are trailblazers."It's the first time for Wales to represented in any type of basketball at a Commonwealth Games," he said."For it to be a wheelchair sport, a para-sport but also a sport that is inclusive of all people with an impairment, is really exciting."For example, Libi is a chair user and I've got cerebral palsy, but I'm ambulant, so I'm able to walk."The sport is for all people with disabilities, which growing up wasn't necessarily something that I thought I could access until I went through Disability Sport Wales pathways."What are the wheelchair 3x3 basketball rules?Wheelchair 3x3 basketball is a 10-minute game with no quarters or halves.Each team is made up of three players with one substitute.Unlike basketball rules, the shot clock runs for 12 seconds instead of 24 and the game is played in a half-court with just one hoop.Possession switches between teams after every made basket. The defensive team can also win possession with a steal, block or defensive rebound.The hoop remains at 10ft and the same rules around traveling apply.Shots inside the arc count for one point and it is two for those outside.The first team to score 21 points wins. If no team has reached 21 points after 10 minutes, the team leading wins. In the event of a tie, the first team to score two points in an overtime period wins.Wales wheelchair 3x3 squadsMen: Alex Wilson, Ben Johnson-Rolfe, Dan May, Will BishopWomen: Anastasia Blease, Chloe Morgan, Libi Phillips, Molly LanderWales women pool fixtures:Saturday, 25 July - Wales v IndiaSunday, 26 July - Wales v NigeriaMonday, 27 July - Wales v ScotlandWales men pool fixtures:Saturday, 25 July - Wales v MalaysiaSunday, 26 July - Wales v South AfricaMonday, 27 July - Wales v Scotland

Is Pirlo the right Italy boss? Why Maldini made this choice The now all-but-certain appointment of Andrea Pirlo as the new head coach of the national team raises a question: Why him, exactly? Its a fair question. More than fair, in factits necessary.Because his CV is hardly dazzling, his profile has deflated the fans excitement, and now it seems as if everything is already being written off before it has even begun. But there is more sense in this choice than people think, regardless of how it ends.Pirlos CVA month ago, Andrea Pirlo claimed that he has always achieved the objectives set for him:4th place with Juventus, the playoffs with Sampdoria, 7th place with Fatih Karagmrk (though in reality he was sacked while in 9thplace), and then promotion from the UAE Serie B by finishing 2nd.That really is quite an impressive rsumif you read it backwards. Because read left to right, it looks like the story of Benjamin Button:it starts where most careers end and then develops in reverse, all the way back to having to learn the ropes in lower divisions, even in minor leagues.But in the middle, we never saw him at his physical peak: where is Andrea Pirlos prime? It never happened. Not yet, at least.To be fair, Pirlo has always achieved the targets set by his clubs. And yet, in order, he was dismissed by Juve; sacked by Samp after just three matches of the new season; fired in Turkey with three games to go; and now he will leave United FC voluntarily (for the first time). In between came an involuntary break, a year out after Juve. Why? I know, but I dont want to say, he replied. Mic drop.Looking at the numbers on Pirlos CV, we can see that he has often produced excellent attacks alongside dreadful defenses (except for last season), but that too is a purely technical point. Because behind this choice there is a broader vision.His legitimacy doesnt rest on his CV alonePirlos rsum may ultimately matter only so much, because he will not be asked to be the Deus ex machina of a group of players. He will be asked to serve as the long-term technical lead of a rebuilding project: Paolo Maldinis project.Pirlos legitimacy with the national team will not rest solely on his immense career as a player, nor will he find it in that season on the Juventus bench, but rather in being a functional member of the new Italy system.Maldini and Leonardos national team needs a profile capable of growing together with their project: someone able to coach, to have his own ideas (excellent attacks and poor defenses for Pirlo, so far), and above all to be able to change those ideas, perhaps even advising those above him. After all, theyre all friends.Why wasnt Conte called?What absolutely had to be avoided was excessive pressure on a group already worn out by nerves, which over the years (and World Cups) have turned into fear. In short, Maldinis plan needs: dialogue, restraint, quiet work, steady hands, and no clenched fists.And Pirlo is that kind of man, Guardiola too. The latter would have been granted more leeway, given his status, but the type of person is the same. The opposite of all this (with immense strengths and obvious flaws) is Antonio Conte, who in fact never had any contact with this national team.Some might interpret a choice like this as Maldinis own grandstanding (and apparently that is what Cardinale told several journalists, in camera caritatis) but Paolo Maldini is this kind of man. A quiet leader who needs people he can talk things through with, people who do not keep banging their fists on the table and who at the same time maintain one attitude above all others: composure.Pirlo may even have too much of that composure; at times he shows a calmness that borders on being as irritating as it is enviable: as was clearly seen in the Juventus docuseries. And thats fine. Or rather, its fine with Maldini.Is Pirlo the right man or just the second choice?Just as Pirlo has always achieved the objectives and yet was then dismissed without regret, today he becomes the second choice despite meeting all the criteria required by Maldini and Leonardo. In that sense, Malag had already lowered expectations: Whoever comes in, even if it isnt Guardiola, it will not be a diminutio. Call it what you want, but that is still what it is.Is it a gamble? Certainly. The truth is that Italy is desperate, and the fans wanted a revolution with the least possible risk, but that is not always possible. Whether Andrea Pirlos appointment proves to be a true partnership or just old-boy favoritism will be decided by the public, and only afterward: depending on whether or not the ball ends up in the net.This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.

Former Aston Villa striker Jhon Duran, 22, has joined Benfica on a season-long loan - the seventh club he's played for [Getty Images]Some of football's most celebrated players stayed loyal to a single club for their entire career. The Premier League's most-decorated player, Ryan Giggs, is one, so too AC Milan legend Paolo Maldini, Roma's Francesco Totti and Arsenal defender Tony Adams. Perhaps some current players such as Bukayo Saka and Phil Foden might join them too.But there are players at the other end of the spectrum, those who can look back on a lengthy list of employers, and sometimes while their career is still in its infancy.The most famous current example is Jhon Duran, the former Aston Villa striker joining the seventh club of his career at the age of just 22 last week.He joins others who were in danger of acquiring the journeyman tag before their 23rd birthday.

[AFP via Getty Images]In 2010, Croatian goalkeeper Matej Delac signed for Chelsea from Inter Zapresic.Despite spending eight years at the club, most of his time was spent on loan.

In October 2018, he won his only cap, coming on as a substitute in a 3-2 Uefa Nations League victory over Spain.Now 31, he's currently without a club having left Sheffield Wednesday following the 202526 season.Josh McEachran - seven different clubsJosh McEachran helped Chelsea win the FA Youth Cup for the first time in 50 years.

[AFP via Getty Images]Ryan Bertrand began his professional career at Chelsea and, by the age of 22, had played for six clubs following multiple loan movesThese included two spells each at Bournemouth and Norwich City respectively, as well as loan stints with Oldham Athletic, Reading and Nottingham Forest.The former England international was loaned out a total of nine separate occasions while at Chelsea before signing permanently for Southampton in 2015, aged 25.At Chelsea, the left-back made his European debut in the Blues' victory over Bayern Munich in the 2012 final.Bertrand has been out of the game since leaving Leicester City in 2023.Alen Halilovic - six different clubsCroatian midfielder Alen Halilovic signed for Barcelona in 2014.

He now plays for Fortuna Sittard in the Netherlands.Ravel Morrison - six different clubsRavel Morrison playing for West Ham in 2013.

He returned to the Premier League in 2001, signing on loan for Liverpool aged 22.In total, the Frenchman played for 12 clubs across seven different countries during his career.
