Former England manager Kevin Keegan will receive two million pounds in compensation after his former club Newcastle United were found guilty by a tribunal of constructive dismissal on Friday.

"We declare that Kevin Keegan was constructively dismissed by Newcastle United Football Club Ltd for which Newcastle United Football Club Ltd must pay to Kevin Keegan damages in the sum of two million plus interest to be assessed if not agreed," a statement provided by the club's website (www.nufc.premiumtv.co.uk) said.

Keegan, who resigned on September 4, 2008, less than eight months after taking charge of his second managerial spell at the club, said Newcastle had breached a term of his contract relating to player transfers.
