Harry Kewell features at number 20 in our 100 Greatest Leeds players ever.
A product of the Australian Institute of Sports, Harry was a member of LUFC's superb 1996-97 FA Youth Cup-winning team and debuted at left back in early 1996. With power, pace, courage and and a great footballing brain, his enormous potential was recognised by his fellow professionals when he was voted young player of the year and third overall in 1999-2000, when his worth was rated at ????20m. While Kewell's performances in his first three years brought a drooling collection of admirers, his Achilles injury caused him to miss the initial part of 2000-01, but his return coincided with United's charge to the ECL semi-final. His form dipped the following season but, switched to striker by Venables, he scored several classic goals, including a superb header against Man U. The Australian International made 227 starts, with a further 15 from the bench and scored 63 goals.

Didnt give a toss for the club where he made his name, screwed us on his move to Liddypool then signed for the much despised Galatasaray.

Can’t forgive his greed and how he f***ed Leeds over when Liverpool came calling.
