Icons MATCH ISSUE Robbie Keane Back Signed Republic Of Ireland 2016-17 Home Shirt

Beloved by a nation that so adores its sport, there can be no doubting Robbie Keane's standing in Irish football folklore. After all, this fox-in-the-box striker made nearly 150 appearances for his country, scoring some 68 goals along the way. Having found the net on so many occasions, the image of Keane cartwheeling through the air was a familiar sight in England and, later on in his distinguished career, the United States of America. Spells at Wolves, Coventry, Leeds, Tottenham, Liverpool, Celtic and LA Galaxy saw the Irishman score for some of the biggest and most ardently followed clubs in the world. It's no wonder he's loved by so many.
