Conor O'Keefe: The Journey & The Mountain

In this episode I'm joined by Macclesfield Town goalkeeper Conor O'Keefe. Conor's journey to the professional game has been far from orthodox. Having previously been released by the silkmen after a one year pro deal, Conor pursued his academic qualifcations at Loughborough University which is one of the worlds best academic institutions for high-performance sport. Following the completion of hsi degree and the set-up of his youtube page, he moved to Madrid as part of a year abroad studying. A season of professional football in Spain gave him the taste of football abroad and led him to move to Sweeden, completing two seasons in Scandanavia before returning home to Macclesfield. 

Conor's journey is nothing short of remarkable and acts as a reminder that having a career in the game is possible for anyone; it just depends how badly you want it.
