“Roy would like to express his gratitude to the club’s owner, board of directors, the staff, the players and in particular manager Martin O’Neill for the opportunity to return to the City Ground.”
The tenacious midfielder, who won seven Premier League titles as a player with Manchester United, had served as O’Neill’s assistant with the Republic of Ireland between 2013 and 2018.
The 47-year-old added: “Working with Martin over the last few years has been a magnificent experience, one of my greatest in football both as a player and a coach and one I want to personally thank him for.”
Keane may now go back into management, having previously been in charge at Sunderland and Ipswich.
