Roy Keane's immediate response after finding out Micah Richards is a manager in the Baller League had the entire Sky Sports panel in stitches.

Richards was joined by Gary Neville, Izzy Christiansen and Keane for Super Sunday, which is headlined by the Premier League clash between Manchester United and Manchester City.

But host David Jones turned away from today's action as he brought up Richards' managerial heroics in the Baller League - a six-a-side indoor football competition.

The innovative league arrived in the UK after being launched in Germany in 2023, with the competition headed by YouTuber KSI.

Richards is among the big-names involved in the Baller League, which also includes John Terry and Maya Jama.

He led Deportrio to a dramatic victory over N5 FC, making it two wins out of two games.

The former Man City defender shared his views on being a manager in the Baller League before Keane interrupted.

He asked: "So, you're the manager?"

The ex-Man United captain then added: "Have you got staff with you?"






To which Richards replied by naming his staff, which includes fellow pundits Gary Lineker and Alan Shearer.

Keane ruthlessly replied: "I thought you said staff..."

Jones and Neville burst out laughing following Keane's brutal putdown.

When Richards explained his team's philosophy, which is a high-pressing side, Keane had a priceless smirk on his face.

Deportrio currently sit second in the Baller League standings. They are behind Yanited, who are managed by social media star Angry Ginge.

The Baller League resumes on Monday.
