The football world is mourning the passing of former Arsenal and Everton striker, Kevin Campbell, at the age of 54. Campbell, who had been in the hospital battling a brief illness, was a beloved figure in the sport.

Born in Lambeth, Campbell rose through the ranks to make his mark at Arsenal, debuting against Everton in 1988. He went on to achieve numerous accolades including a League Cup and FA Cup double with Arsenal.

Campbell’s journey continued with notable stints at Nottingham Forest, Trabzonspor, and Cardiff before retiring in 2007. Post-retirement, he excelled as a TV pundit, showcasing his warmth and humor on screen.

During his time at Everton, Campbell made a lasting impact both on and off the pitch. He played a pivotal role in the team’s resurgence, being instrumental in key matches including the Merseyside derby.

Hailed as a true gentleman and a shining light in the dressing room, Campbell’s legacy extends beyond his playing days. His son, Tyrese, formerly of Stoke City, followed in his father’s football footsteps.
