Mario Kempes signed memorabilia
Mario Alberto Kempes born 15 July 1954 in Bell Ville, Cordoba is a retired Argentine footballer. His father, Mario, also a footballer, inspired him to play from a young age. At the age of 7, he began playing with a junior team and at 14, he joined La Cuarta de Talleres. He is most notable for playing for Valencia and being the focal point of Argentina's 1978 World Cup win. Kempes was nicknamed El toro. During his first stint with Valencia, he won two consecutive Pichichis, scoring 24 and 28 goals in 1976,77 and 1977,78. His career started at local club Instituto before quickly moving on to Central, where he scored 85 goals in 105 matches and established himself as a notorious goalscorer, which prompted a move to Valencia, where he would go on to win the Copa del Rey, the European Cup Winners' Cup and the UEFA Super Cup. Famous as a hard-working forward, he used to strike from outside the penalty area with his surging runs goalwards and was not the traditional center-forward operating solely inside the box. Many defenders found difficulties handling his attacking style. Before the 1978 World Cup, Kempes was the only foreign based player on the list of coach Cesar Luis Menotti's national team in Argentina, he was at the time playing for Spanish giants Valencia while the other squad members all played in Argentina. The coach described him when announcing the squad he had selected for the 1978 tournament, "He's strong, he's got skill, he creates spaces and he shoots hard. He's a player who can make a difference, and he can play in a centre-forward position". Kempes had been the top scorer in La Liga in each of the past two seasons and was determined to show on home soil that he could deliver against the best on the sport's greatest stage as well. However, in 1974, at the age of 20, he failed to get on the score sheet in West Germany and after the first round group stage in 1978, his name was still missing among goal scorers in the tournament.
