Roy Keane confronts fan after Sky Sports present saying ‘I’ll watch for you within the automotive park’

Roy Keane was spotted in a heated confrontation with a football fan while presenting the Sky Sports show Super Sunday.

The football star was heard offering to take an Ipswich fan out of Portland Road, adding: “I’ll wait for you in the car park and we can discuss it”.

The altercation started after the fan called Mr Keane out. Video footage on Twitter shows Mr Keane walking over to the fan in the stands before getting into an argument.

Keane, along with fellow Sky Sports pundits Jamie Redknapp and Izzy Christiansen, were receiving final instructions from producers to come back out of an ad-break before the Man United legend set off to confront one particular fan, who had stayed behind to goad him.

The former Manchester United captain, who managed Ipswich between 2009 and 2011, could be seen putting down his microphone and walking over to confront the fan directly before a heated back-and-forth ensued.

A subsequent video shared to social media after the match showed Keane, 53, continually telling the fan to ‘wait and discuss it in the car park’ as abusive remarks were hurled in his direction.

As Keane walked back to join the Sky Sports panel, a nearby steward told the fan to calm down moments before Redknapp jumped in to say a few words.

Mr Keane held a heated and tense relationship with some Ipswich supporters during his reign at the club – and once admitted that his feud with the fans spurred him on.

Before pundtry Keane carved out a career in management during the 2000s and early 2010s, first coaching Sunderland for two years before moving to Portman Road in 2009.
