O’Neill made clear his desire for Keane to join Forest during his unveiling.He said earlier this month: “I would dearly like him [Keane] to join us.“Overall, he was great for me, and great for the [Ireland] players, and the genuine truth is that I dont think that we would have qualified for the Euros [Euro 2016] without his presence. I have been unflinching in that support.”Keane spent three years playing for Forest after being signed by Brian Clough for 47,000 from Cobh Ramblers.Keane was an astute signing for Nottingham Forest1
