However, Becks' book is cleared since he's already signed contract.

I read that they did see Keane's book and I'm surprised that they didn't realise the storm that the passage about Haaland would raise. A question of stable doors and bolting horses now I think :)

I finished reading it just last week. The quotes that have you have seen in thepaper are in no way an accurate representation of what's actually said in the book. It was a very good read, however I believe players should wait til the end of their careers before publishing a book. Besides, if they only release one book at the end of their career, it'll save the gullable punter who buys all these books a fair bit of money.
