Roy Keane Dubs Sir Alex Ferguson a 'Bad Smell' and Leaves Sky Studio Gobsmacked
Roy Keane criticized Sir Alex Ferguson's ongoing influence at Manchester United, calling it a "bad smell" amid the club’s managerial upheaval after Ruben Amorim’s sacking.
- Delivering his assessment on Sky Sports after Arsenal's 0-0 draw on Thursday, Keane said: `Who is making the decisions at United, you have still got Ferguson and David Gill hanging around like a bad smell. Who is going into the interview process, getting a feeler for them and saying, 'this is the guy for us'`.
- Ferguson, still a non-executive director, met Omar Berrada and Jason Wilcox earlier this week at Carrington, maintaining his involvement with Manchester United.
- Darren Fletcher, Manchester United interim boss, admitted calling Ferguson before the Burnley match and led the 2-2 draw; he is expected to manage Sunday's FA Cup game against Brighton.
- Keane questioned who is running Manchester United's hiring process, asking what happens in interviews and who makes decisions after Ruben Amorim's sacking earlier this month, while naming Eddie Howe his preferred appointment and criticising the club's hierarchy.
- United are understood to favour appointing another interim before a summer decision, with former Manchester United managers Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Michael Carrick linked to the short-term role.
