Roy Keane has admitted he feels like his days in management ‘are over’ after turning down the chance to return to Sunderland in February. Keane was the front runner to replace Lee Johnson at the Black Cats but opted against taking the job after extensive talks with the club.
The 50-year-old’s last job as the main man in the dugout came over 11 years ago now at Ipswich Town, although he has spent time as the assistant manager with Republic of Ireland, Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest. Keane has instead taken up a career in punditry, regularly appearing on Sky Sports for their Premier League coverage.
Despite seriously considering the opportunity to make his return earlier this year, Keane has now confirmed that he feels those days are now well and truly behind him.
