    Keane has hit the headlines once again after an altercation with a fan at Portman Road. A video circulating on social media shows the Manchester United legend appearing to say "I'll wait for you in the car park," while Ipswich fan Neil Finbow has claimed to be the supporter involved and has claimed Keane offered him out after the game. Sky Sports are now investigating and have asked fellow pundits Jamie Redknapp, Izzy Christensen as well as presenter Kelly Cates for their view of the incident, according to The Sun.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Keane has been involved in a fan confrontation previously during media work. Arsenal supporter Scott Law was handed a three-year footballing ban and a fine after being found guilty of assaulting the former midfielder in the aftermath of a Gunners' win over Manchester United at the Emirates. Sky Sports are not expected to take action against Keane but may boost security for their staff in the wake of the incident.

  • WHAT HAS BEEN SAID

    Finbow has offered a bit more detail on the incident to the Daily Mail: "[Jamie Redknapp] didn't really step in. He was just sort of talking to Roy from behind. I can't remember him coming in and pulling him away. Roy was sort of pointing in this guy's face. There was no security or anything, which I was surprised about. Roy was directing his comments towards the fan who had the big issue because of his kids. There were a few choice words said about that. We were surprised he came over because you've got a lot of ex-players and managers that come down here. They all get stick, but I was as shocked as anybody when Roy came over."

    WHAT NEXT FOR KEANE

    Despite the latest incident, Keane is expected to continue his punditry work, although he has hinted already he is growing tired of the job. The Manchester United legend told The Overlap he "doesn't think" he'll be doing punditry work in 10 years' time and also revealed a desire to move abroad.
