In this episode, Patty and Brian sit down with Kempes Tekiela, the man behind more than half of One Knoxville SC’s goals across all competitions this season. The Big German moved to Knoxville from Luxembourg First Division side Union Titus Pétange earlier this year and has been making the most of his time in America.
Listen in as we get to know Kempes, from his story of joining Borussia Dortmund’s youth academy as a boy and debuting as a pro to making the big move across the pond in search of goals, glory, and a bit of the American life he experienced growing up with shows like One Tree Hill and Friday Night Lights.
All that, plus the return of Know Your Knox Trivia—you don’t want to miss this!
