In an Instagram post, Graves revealed that 'Keegan was a big fan of "Tuchel Ball"'.Earlier in June, when Keegan publicly revealed his cancer diagnosis for the first time, he displayed his trademark wit to share the devastating news.Speaking alongside Graves at the Tyne Theatre, Kevin disclosed a conversation regarding his treatment. He said: "I was in a car accident and, through that, I had to have an operation.

He's a Liverpool supporter so I knew I wouldn't walk alone."He said, 'Kevin, this new treatment, I've got a tremendous strike rate'. He was so much more than an Entertainer."Above all that, Kevin forged an extraordinary bond with Newcastle, built on the roots of his father, Joe.

He embraced the North East with a passion that was genuine and unwavering, and in return, he earned his rightful place in the hearts of millions."Kevin's impact will not be measured by appearances or results. It will live on in the memories he created with club and country, the dreams he inspired wherever he went, and the generations of supporters around the world who fell in love with football because of him."At this profoundly sad time, we send our love and deepest sympathy to Kevin's wife Jean, his family, friends and all who had the privilege of knowing and working alongside him."Today, we mourn the loss of a true giant of our history, and at the appropriate moment, we will carefully consider how we shape a lasting tribute to Kevin's remarkable life and legacy.
