Where is Gary Kelly now?
Former Leeds United right-back called time on his illustrious career at the end of the 2006-07 season at the relatively young age of 32.
A one-club man, he started his professional career at Leeds in 1992 and went onto make 531 first-team appearances over a 15-year period. He made his debut in the 1991-92 title-winning season but unfortunately did not qualify for a medal as he hadn’t played enough games.
Away from the domestic side of the game he was an important member of the Republic of Ireland national side for nine years winning 52 caps and representing them in the 1994 and 2002 FIFA World Cup finals.
When he retired from playing he donated €750,000 from his testimonial match to open the Gary Kelly Cancer Support Centre in Drogheda after his sister died from breast cancer at the age of 35 .
In March 2016, he opened a state-of-the-art gym in Drogheda called the GK Gym which he owns and operates along with other members of his family.
