Keane ‘delighted’ with his book

MANCHESTER UNITED skipper Roy Keane (pictured) insists he is ‘delighted’ with his controversial autobiography which was officially released yesterday.

The former Irish international is facing possible Football Association sanctions over the book, in which he claims to have deliberately set out to injure Manchester City midfielder Alfie Haaland at Old Trafford in April 2001.

However, Keane, whose book also includes scathing attacks on Irish bosses past and present, plus accusations that his own team-mates had lost their desire amid a welter of personal possessions, remains unmoved.

‘‘When I decided to do the book I wanted to do it properly,’’ he said. I’ve read it and I am delighted with it. Eamonn Dunphy (Keane’s ghostwriter) has done a great job.’’

‘‘I have given an honest account of things and I think it is a very good book.”
