Encouraged by his family, he developed a keen interest that soon transformed into serious ambition.

Keagan's early years were marked by relentless practice on makeshift pitches and playing for local clubs, where his natural affinity for batting was unmistakable.

While batting remains his forte, Keagan's contribution with the ball adds another dimension to his game. His versatile bowling skills, although not his primary focus, have on several occasions provided crucial breakthroughs, making him an invaluable member of the squad.

A defining moment in Keagan’s career was his debut for the national team. Representing Portugal in a European Championship qualifier, he scored a brisk 75, setting the stage for a historic win.
