I realize this is a bit late, but its all good. After some protracted negotiations, Galatasaray have finally signed Harry Kewell from Liverpool on a free transfer. Let’s get to know Harry a little better.

Harry Kewell can play as a left winger, a central attacking midfielder, and a second forward. Kewell was signed by English side Leeds United at the age of 15. He made his debut at the age of only 17 for Leeds and followed this up by his debut for the Australian national side only months later. Kewell was a vital part of a very succesful Leeds side that gained much respect throughout the footballing world.

In the 1999/2000 Leeds United-Galatasaray UEFA cup semifnal match, Kewell was sent off. However everything turned out good as Galatasaray went on to win the UEFA cup by beating Arsenal in a thrilling match which was decided by penalties. In the 2000/2001 champions league season, Kewell helped Leeds United reach the semifinals. He was also chosen the PFA youth player of the year. However as financial problems took hold at Leeds United, Kewell left for Liverpool. He would go on to state that his injuries were worsened by the Leeds physios and that he found very little support by his teammates.

In the 05/06 season with Liverpool, Kewell truly showed his class as he provided plenty of goals and assists for his team. However injuries persisted in hampering his real abilities and Kewell soon found himself spending more time with his doctors then with his team. And finally in the summer of 2008 Kewell moved on a free transfer to the champions of Turkey, Galatasaray.

Kewell will do wonders at Galatasaray, Im sure of it. Theirs nothing Turkish fans love more than a winger who shows his desire for victory along with an ability to get past defenders, something he can easily do in Turkey. There is however the potential problem of injuries. According to the Galatasaray medical staff, Kewell is in good condition and can start pre-season training immediatly.

At the offical unveiling of Kewell and resulting press conference, Kewell stated that “I wanted to move on and this is the best way. I can’t wait to get started, it’s just what I’m looking forward to, a new challenge.” If that’s what you’re looking for Harry, then you’ve found just the place. Next year Harry Kewell will be wearing the number 19 on his uniform. He stated that 19 was the number that he wore back when he first started at Leeds. The Galatasaray faithful just can’t wait for Kewell to step out onto the Ali Sami Yen pitch. I’m sure he remembers the fans back in 2000. Im sure he cant wait as well.

I could hardly state it better myself Harry.
