Former-Manchester United captain Roy Keane believes Sir Alex Ferguson is still desperate for control and power at the club, despite him retiring from management in the Summer.
The Scot announced his retirement after guiding the club to their 20th league title and he was then replace by Everton manager David Moyes, who has not enjoyed his time at Old Trafford so far due to some poor results this season.
Since retiring, Ferguson has taking a role as a director at the club and still remains a key figure at Old Trafford, and his former-captain believes it is his ego that will never allow someone else be in full control of Manchester United.
“Everything is about control and power. He’s still striving for it now even though he’s not manager. There’s massive ego involved in that.”
The two have had a major fall-out and their relationship is non-existent with Ferguson slamming Keane in his recent book, but the Irishman has revealed that any positive comment that comes from Ferguson’s mouth doesn’t mean anything to him anymore.
Keane added: “Stuff like that almost insults me. I get offended when people give quotes like that about me. It’s like praising the postman for delivering letters.”
