New Manchester United manager Michael Carrick has responded to a recent jibe from former teammate Roy Keane concerning his wife, Lisa. The comment, made by Keane during a punditry appearance, reignited a long-standing feud between the two.
Carrick, who took over as interim manager following Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's dismissal, addressed the matter in a press conference. He stated that while he respects Keane as a player, he felt the personal remark was unnecessary and crossed a line.
The incident has drawn attention to the relationship between the two former Manchester United players, which has been strained for years. Carrick emphasised that his focus remains on his role at the club and that he will not let personal disputes distract from his duties.
Lisa Carrick, Michael's wife, has also been drawn into the controversy, with reports suggesting she had previously exchanged words with Keane. However, Carrick declined to elaborate on those details, urging the media to respect his family's privacy.
