Richard Keys has warned Sky Sports legend Martin Tyler that he could soon endure the same fate as Graeme Souness, who was secretly 'sacked' by the broadcaster.
Keys, who resigned from Sky in 2011 after making comments about a female linesman which were deemed to have been sexist, claims that Souness was indeed sacked by chiefs and didn't leave on his own accord as widely believed. Ex-Sky presenter Keys alleges that Souness' remarks from last August in the wake of Chelsea's fiery clash with London rivals Tottenham - as the former Liverpool captain and manager declared that the match showed football was still "a man's game" - was the catalyst behind his exit.
With his contract expiring at the end of the 2022-23 season and after what Sky say was a mutual agreement to part ways, Souness announced his exit in April following 15 years as one of the broadcaster's most regularly-appearing football pundits. Now working for beIN Sports, based in Qatar, Keys reckons that legendary commentator Tyler - another of his ex-Sky colleagues - should also be 'looking over his shoulder' after recently landing himself in hot water.
