Ant and Dec have revealed they were “close” to signing former Nottingham Forest midfielder and assistant manager Roy Keane for this year’s I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! The Geordie presenting duo were speaking about possible future contestants as they discussed Olivia Atwood’s exit from the jungle - and discussions soon turned to Roy.
Delving into a list of names suggested by fans on social media, Ant quizzed: “Roy Keane next year? Do you know what… Roy Keane would be very good. “And I think we’ve asked him on a few occasions and he’s been close.
"He’s been close to saying yes, so maybe next year could be the year. Come on Roy Keane, do it for the lads.” Also keen on seeing the 51-year-old Sky Sports pundit, Dec added: “I would love Roy Keane, he is top of our list,” the Mirror reports.
