Roy Keane lands new pundit job away from Sky Sports and ITV

Manchester United icon Roy Keane will debut his punditry insight for a new broadcaster for the Europa League final between the Red Devils and Tottenham. Despite regularly voicing his opinions on Sky Sports and ITV, Keane is switching allegiances to join CBS Sports' lineup for the highly anticipated clash. The broadcasting giant rolls out the red carpet for the Irishman, who will provide analysis alongside veterans Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards, with Anita Jones hosting the coverage.

Also on the show is former United goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel, who takes on pitchside reporting duties next to Guillem Balague, while former referee Christina Unkel lends her officiating perspective, and Clive Tyldesley teams up with ex-England shot-stopper Rob Green on commentary. Keane, despite being steeped in United glory, grew up as a Spurs fan but is expecting his former team to prevail.

Pitching in his take to Sky Sports, Keane said: "You still have to fancy United, someone like Bruno [Fernandes] can produce, the history of Manchester United still carries a little bit of weight.

"There's not much between them [in the league] but come the crunch, come the final, United's history in finals, them winning cups the last few years, you'd like to think they would have a bit more knowledge around the game than Spurs. That might edge it for them, and I think Bruno can produce that bit of magic."

Fernandes is setting his sights on lifting silverware as a catalyst for the club, despite acknowledging their struggles in the league. "Every game you have a chance to win a trophy is very big but part of that is every game at this club is massive," said Fernandes.

"As Harry [Maguire] has just said, this club is so big, from one week you can be the hero and, the next one, you're the villain. As players, you just think about what we have ahead of us and what we have ahead of us is the chance to get our hands on the trophy.

"It won't change the past. It won't affect what the past has done for us either but what i can affect is the future. Probably, yes, winning a trophy gives a lot of things. In this case, a place in the Champions League and a lot of revenue for the club.

"It gets, obviously, more players wanting to come to the club. But I think this club doesn't change much in that aspect because I think every player wants to play for Manchester United. This is a thing that will never change.

"The name of this club speaks for itself. But the main thing, of course, is what is ahead of us and that is a massive final, against a team we know very well. But in a competition different to the Premier League so it's going to be a completely different game."
