The USA team are preparing for the match against Germany on Wednesday in Dortmund.
("I had a look at it. Kristin and the kids came over and had a look at it. They thought it would be cool, and I thought it would be cool. For a short period of time, a couple of years, it's kind of fun")
US national team keeper , Kasey Keller speeds home along the autobahn after training each day, then winds down country roads until the two turrets appear through the trees, the black metal gates swing open and he pulls into the driveway. He may very well be the only player preparing for the FIFA World Cup™ who makes his home in a castle.
Next to a cattle farm in a small town in northwest Germany, the starting goalkeeper for the United States' FIFA World Cup team lives with his wife, two children and Rufus, a white Maltese, in a 1,000-year-old rented castle.
Next to a cattle farm in a small town in northwest Germany, the starting goalkeeper for the United States' FIFA World Cup team lives with his wife, two children and Rufus, a white Maltese, in a 1,000-year-old rented castle.
His renovated four-floor kingdom is complete with two towers, moat and chapel. Instead of a dungeon, the basement has a spa with pool, Jacuzzi and steam room. How did a 36-year-old goalkeeper, who grew up on an egg farm wind up spending nights in a brick-and-stone tower, like some medieval prisoner?

It began in a most modern way: his wife spotted the castle on the internet after he left Tottenham Hotspur in January 2005 and signed for Borussia Monchengladbach. It's about a 20-minute drive north from the team's stadium and training ground. "We wanted to be closer, but we couldn't find the house we were looking for," he said on a cold March afternoon.
