Blast from the past, the man just keeps coming up smelling of roses.
BBC Sport - Football - Injured Harry Kewell named in Australia World Cup squadAustralia have named Harry Kewell in their provisional 31-man squad for this summer's World Cup in South Africa.
Kewell, who joined Galatasaray from Liverpool in 2008, has had a hamstring injury for most of the season.
However, Australia manager Pim Verbeek is confident the 31-year-old forward will be fit for his side's Group D opener against Germany on 13 June.
"If a club team has five weeks to prepare for a competition, they're very happy so there's no problem," he said.
"Harry is one of those players that can perform without any preparation.
"He can do something special during a game and that's what I'm counting on.
"Harry's a special class and I will pick Harry and take him into the World Cup even if he's not fit yet."Australia face New Zealand in a pre-World Cup game on 24 May in Melbourne before further friendlies against Denmark and the United States ahead of their opener in the brand new Moses Mabhida Stadium.
Eleven English-based players have been named in the squad, including midfielder Richard Garcia, who has not played for Hull for over a month because of a knee injury.
But the 28-year-old is confident of recovering in time before the start of the tournament, which runs from 11 June to 11 July.
"I'm pretty happy with it, it's just a matter of a few more weeks leading up to the New Zealand game," he said
