Keane reiterates managerial ambitions

Manchester United skipper Roy Keane has reiterated that he would like to one day succeed Alex Ferguson as manager at Old Trafford.

The former Irish international told the News of the World: "I have spoken to one or two people in the game and it is something which appeals to me - going down the road to becoming a manager," Keane said.

"I'd like to pass on the experience I have had - and I have been fortunate to play under some brilliant managers such as Sir Alex and Brian Clough.

"The challenge would appeal to me and to be manager of Manchester United? Why not!"

"I am in the process, along with a few other players at United, of sitting my coaching badges over the next year or two and then who knows?"
