ROY KEANE has been left speechless after former rival Giorgio Chiellini picked his shirt over Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.

The Italian legend gatecrashed a recent recording of Sky's new show The Overlap on Tour.

Keane was joined by fellow analysts Gary Neville, Ian Wright and Jamie Carragher for the recording.

Seated in a restaurant, the quartet were left shocked as former Juventus centre-back Chiellini made a shock entrance.

The 40-year-old strode into camera shot wearing a vintage Manchester United strip.

Neville gasped: "You look great in that kit!"

A visibly stunned Keane agreed: "It suits you."

The former Juve centre-half spun around to reveal the strip had Keane's name and number on the back.

Chiellini explained: "I was at an event of classic shirts and they ask me 'Okay, pick one.'

"I look for the first one. It was not Ronaldo, it was not Messi.

"I said I want Manchester United and Roy Keane."

One fan laughed in response to the clip on X: "Chiellini got Roy Keane blushing so hard."

Another said: "Keano! Greatest ever CM in prem history."

While a third added: "That's brilliant. Chiellini is a class act."

And a fourth quipped: "When you see Keane smiling, you are already more blessed like when you see 20 unicorns."

Chiellini later joked he almost left Juventus to "join Sunderland" when Keane was manager of the Black Cats in 2006.

Keane laughed in response: "You would have loved it!"

Chiellini is widely regarded as one of the best centre-backs of his generation.

He started his career at Livorno, before joining Juve in 2004.

The Italian would go on to play over 400 times for the Old Lady, winning nine Serie A titles.

Chiellini earned over 100 caps for Italy during his 23-year career, wining the Euros in 2020.

He finally hung up his boots last year at the age of 39 after a season in the MLS with Los Angeles FC.
