ROY Keane was left "shaken" after he was allegedly headbutted by a fan during the Arsenal and Manchester United game.<\/p>\n

Micah Richards was seen pinning a man against a wall during a confrontation inside the Emirates Stadium yesterday.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

A man, 42, has since been arrested on suspicion of assault.<\/p>\n

Both pundits were left shaken following the incident, Sun Sport understands.<\/p>\n

Sky is also understood to be beefing up its security moving forward.<\/p>\n

The fan, meanwhile, fled the scene in a crowd with police and Arsenal now combing through CCTV footage to find him.<\/p>\n

Roy Keane \u2018headbutted’ as Micah Richards holds \u2018attacker\u2019<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Man Utd new signing already in Roy Keane\u2019s bad books just hours after joining<\/h3>\n

Keane and Richards had been waiting near a lift at the members-only Highbury Bar, at the top of the West Stand, when the incident took place.<\/p>\n

They were making their way towards pitchside to give their post-match thoughts as part of Sky's coverage as the Premier League clash reached its final stages.<\/p>\n

But the pundits began returning to the Sky studio to watch replays of Alejandro Garnacho's late goal for United, only for his strike to be later ruled out for offside.<\/p>\n

A witness told\u00a0The Express\u00a0Keane was asking nearby staff to call police.<\/p>\n

They said: "The fan seemingly tried to headbutt Roy Keane. I then saw a mark between his eyebrows.<\/p>\n

"Micah Richards stepped in and pushed the fan back against the door. I heard the altercation and I was shocked to see the individuals involved."<\/p>\n

The witness added: "Afterwards, we noticed a small amount of blood on the floor on the route where the fan was led out. Seems like Micah Richards was acting as Roy Keane's bodyguard."<\/p>\n

Richards is said to have been "acting to defuse a situation", a Sky Sports spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

The fan was prevented from inflicting any serious damage on the United legend.<\/p>\n

The pair were eventually escorted down to the pitch, where they gave their thoughts post-match with ex-Arsenal winger Theo Walcott and presenter Dave Jones.<\/p>\n

Keane seemed assured as he gave his thoughts on the game, even joking with Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice over how his strike should have been deemed an own goal.<\/p>\n

Arsenal are cooperating with authorities with the investigation underway.<\/p>\n

A club spokesperson added: "We are aware of an incident that took place during our match against Manchester United on Sunday.<\/p>\n

"The Metropolitan Police is conducting an investigation into the matter and we are fully cooperating with their enquiries."<\/p>\n

A spokesperson for Sky Sports said: "We understand the police are investigating an alleged assault by a member of the public immediately preceding the footage circulating on social media.<\/p>\n

"In the footage seen, Micah Richards was acting to defuse a situation."<\/p>\n

Keane and Richards played for fierce rivals on the pitch, but have former an unlikely bond since the ex-City defender joined the Sky Sports punditry team.<\/p>\n

They regularly work on Sky's Super Sunday programme and will likely be back on TV screens together after the international break on September 17.<\/p>\n
