MANCHESTER UNITED skipper Roy Keane has confirmed he wants to become a manager once his playig days are over - preferably at Manchester United!
The former Republic of Ireland international is currently studying for a UEFA coaching licence and has admitted that he'd jump at the chance of becoming the Manchester United manager if the chance came up.
"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 told the News of the World.
"I wouldn't like to say for certain, but it is definitely something in the back of my mind.
"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 Ferguson 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?"
