Stephen "Steve" Kean (born 30 September 1967) is a Scottish football manager and former player. He is the current manager of Blackburn Rovers in the Premier League.
Playing career
Kean grew up in Cumbernauld, a new town on the outskirts of Glasgow, attending St. Maurice's High School. Upon leaving school, he joined Celtic as a professional, but was unable to break into a first team then dominated by Celtic legends Tommy Burns, Murdo MacLeod and Paul McStay.
He joined Swansea City on loan in 1987,[2] at the same time as Chris Coleman. They formed a lasting professional relationship, which carried on after both of their playing days had ended.
Kean then played for Academica Coimbra in Portugal.[3]
Coaching and management career
Since retiring from playing Kean has worked as a coach for Reading, Fulham, Real Sociedad and Coventry City, working as an assistant to Chris Coleman at Fulham, Real Sociedad and Coventry.[3]
In June 2008, it was reported that Kean was in talks with Chelsea to become assistant coach to Luiz Felipe Scolari.[3] Kean's fluency in Portuguese from his playing days was believed to be a key reason for Chelsea's interest.[3]
On 4 August 2009 Blackburn Rovers manager Sam Allardyce appointed Kean as his new first team coach. Kean replaced Karl Robinson who returned to Milton Keynes Dons. Allardyce commented that he had received numerous applications for the first team coaching position and Kean "stood out above the rest through his personality, experience and knowledge of football at the highest level".[citation needed]
After the sacking of Allardyce on 13 December 2010, Kean was installed as caretaker manager for Blackburn.[4] On 22 December, Kean was appointed manager on a contract until the end of the season to prove his abilities as manager.[5] On 4 January 2011, it was revealed by Blackburn Rovers' owner Anuradha Desai, chairperson of Venkys, that Kean would be offered a new 2-3 year long-term contract to manage the club.[6] On 20 January, it was confirmed by Blackburn that Kean had signed a contract until June 2013.[7]
Despite Rovers standing at the bottom of the league, it was confirmed by the club that he had improved terms signing a new contract with Rovers. However this new contract was confirmed not to have included an extension to the length of the contract.[8] This came despite Kean's comments less then a week earlier stating: "Yes, there have been discussions about a new contract, but I have told the owners that this is an inappropriate time to conclude any new contract discussions".[9] The new deal came after months of protests at the club in which fans have been campaigning to have Kean removed as Rovers manager.[10]
Personal life
On 15 August 2011 Kean was convicted of drink driving at Macclesfield Magistrates' Court. The Court rejected his defence that his drinks had been spiked following a match against Manchester United. He was banned from driving for 18 months and fined £1,800.[11]
