Previously, Keane has steered clear of demands from selfie fans and turned down a request at an NFL event in London.
During a trip to America in 2023, a fan responded poorly to his refusal.
This led Keane, 53, to unleash a brutal comeback to their comments.
Keane recounted the story in a recent episode of the Stick to Football podcast, hosted by Sky Bet.
He shared, “Last year, while in America meeting some friends, a guy came over asking for a picture.
“I simply said, ‘No, I’m waiting for some friends, and I’m not taking pictures’.
“He responded, ‘you know nobody here knows who you are,’ and I just shot back, ‘you do’. It was spot on.”

Guest comedian Ricky Gervais also expressed his solidarity with Keane’s dislike for selfies.
He noted: “I worry that while trying to catch a train, someone will ask for a selfie – I’ll agree and then miss my train.”

“I absolutely hate it when someone calls me a complete a***hole. Just this morning, someone asked for a selfie while I was having breakfast!
“Once, I was at the urinal when someone requested a selfie.
“He threw his arm around me and took the picture. Unbelievable – and I couldn’t say anything.
“Now, while I don’t have the selfie, it’s safely stored in his phone!”
Gervais also teased Keane about his interaction with an Ipswich Town fan after the 1-1 draw with Man United.
Keane confronted the supporter, declaring: “I’ll wait for you in the car park.”
To which Gervais humorously commented: “I’m just relieved Roy didn’t want to have a chat with me in the car park.”
