Keane, 49, has famously voiced his displeasure with stars’ online antics, from singalongs and celebrations to fashion lines.
And just last weekend he couldn’t have looked more disgusted when Micah Richards showed him the hilarious clip of his FIFA 21 character dancing.
Yet the Irishman has now taken the plunge and joined the masses on Instagram.
Incredibly, within hours he already boasted over 400,000 followers. Although, true to character, he was following NOBODY.
And his new followers were treated to an adorable profile picture of a beaming Keane as a child.
Meanwhile, the dog-loving ex-midfuelder decided to mark his first post by showing his affectionate side as he uploaded a snap of himself and his pooch.
Captioning the image, he said: “A man’s best friend.”
His Sky Sports colleague Richards immediately commented on the post as he expressed his delight, messaging, “He’s here,” followed by a number of laughing face emojis.
Sky’s Super Sunday and Monday Night Football host David Jones quipped: “Welcome … this could be interesting.”
Keane’s former United team-mate Andy Cole added: “Love it skip.”
