Item Description
Winner receives an autographed copy of Sporting KC Goalie Jimmy Nielsen's new book: Welcome to the Blue Heaven; Don't Bet Against the Goalkeeper. Major League Soccer's Goalkeeper of the Year for 2012, Jimmy Nielsen, has established himself as one of the best players in the league and a fan favorite in Kansas City, playing for Sporting Kansas City. Yet while supporters are familiar with his achievements on the field and larger-than-life personality off it, few are aware of the remarkable story that led him to the US Midwest. Compared from a young age to Denmark's greatest ever goalkeeper, Peter Schmeichel, Nielsen was scouted by Manchester United and a host of other leading European clubs, but at the point when he should have been building a great career he was instead developing a ferocious gambling habit......Want to know more about how he turned his life around? Be inspired by this book which includes photos. This is a treasured keepsake signed by Sporting KC's most beloved goalie no longer nicknamed "Casino Jimmy" but the "White Puma"! Bid today!
