Richards was like Roy Keane's bodyguard...

A MAN has been arrested after allegedly head-butting football pundit Roy Keane.

Manchester United and Ireland legend Keane, 52, was said to have been attacked in a VIP area at Arsenal's Emirates Stadium towards the end of the Gunners' 3-1 win over United on Sunday.

Footage was posted on social media of fellow Sky Sports pundit and former Manchester City player Micah Richards, 35, pinning a man against a wall in the aftermath of the alleged incident.

A witness said Richards was acting as his colleague's "bodyguard".

Sky confirmed the alleged assault happened immediately before the footage. A 42-year-old man was arrested yesterday on suspicion of ABH.
