ROY KEANE was a shock visitor at Preston vs West Brom on Wednesday night to set tongues wagging about a managerial return.
Manchester United legend Keane does want to be a boss again — as we revealed last year — despite his Sky Sports pundit role.
But Steve Bruce looks like he is staying in charge of the Baggies for now and has the backing of chief executive Ron Gourlay.
Keane was spotted in the stands as Preston beat West Brom 1-0 to pile the pressure on Bruce.
The Baggies boss was then confronted by a fuming fan after the defeat.

But again the Baggies dropped points as they were held to a 0-0 draw at home.
Keane managed Sunderland between 2006 and 2008, before taking the Ipswich Town job between 2009 and 2011.
The Old Trafford legend has also been assistant manager of Republic of Ireland, Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest.
He left Forest in 2019 and has been a pundit on Sky Sports since the same year.
