Roy Keane demands Erik ten Hag copies Luis Enrique after "throwing punches" comment

Roy Keane has urged Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag to follow the lead of Spain coach Luis Enrique and sack David de Gea.

Former United captain Keane previously claimed in an astonishing rant two years ago that he was "sick to death" of the goalkeeper and would be "swinging punches at him", following a high-profile error in a Premier League match against Tottenham. De Gea was at fault for Crystal Palace's goal in Tuesday's friendly win over Melbourne.

The Spanish goalkeeper has been United's first-choice shot-stopper for over a decade but his stagnating form in recent years led to suggestions that he should be replaced by the club. This has been the case at international level, where De Gea is no longer part of the squad.
