Roy Keane tells hilarious story about being caught in a strip club on Man Utd pre-season tour
ROY KEANE has told a hilarious story about being caught in a strip club on a Manchester United pre-season tour.
The former United captain left Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher in stitches with his anecdote.
Keane told the audience in Manchester the story of a past trip to the USA with United.
After being asked on the Overlap Live to reveal his best night out story that he has never told, he recalled: “We had a good night out in pre-season with Man United in Chicago one night that was pretty mad.
“We had a night out, we took a couple young players, pre-season, we were definitely in Chicago, I remember that.
“Woke up the next morning, Denis is waking me up. We’re kind of trying to get down for the bus where we were travelling.
“I looked and all my face was black, just black. I couldn’t work out what happened. I went: ‘Jesus.’
“Trying to get my gear on. I get on the bus, it’s all coming back to me. I’m sitting at the back of the bus, we’re travelling, obviously towards the airport.
“Our press officer sends us a story about some of the Man United players being in a strip club, Chicago.
“So I’m down the back, I said: ‘Don’t worry about it. They’ve got no proof. No proof. Everyone relax. I’ve got it under control. I’m obviously the captain, you’re fine with me.’

“Five minutes (later), the phone goes again. Apparently, they’ve got proof. I said: ‘What have they got? What have they got?’
“They said: ‘They’ve got your fingerprints.’ He also said: ‘They have your credit card details. Your passport details.’ And I said: ‘Is that all they’ve got on me?’
“So the bus erupted. They’ve done a story obviously in-depth and obviously when I went in I gave my fingerprints during the night and then I was just rubbing my face as the night was going on.
“That’s all I was rubbing. I was just rubbing my face. I think they ran the story and the headline in some of the Irish papers was something like ‘Horny Devils’ or something.”
