Roy Keane has been named as the second richest football manager in Britain.

That's despite the fact that the Corkman has not managed a club since leaving Ipswich in 2011. 

The former footballer, turned TV pundit has managed both Sunderland and Ipswich Town in the past.

According to the latest Sunday Times Football Managers’ Rich List, he has 34-million-euro in the bank which is just 6-million behind his ex boss Alex Ferguson.

Alex Ferguson is worth €40.8 million,  which is up €2.4 million from last year.

And while Ireland are doing poorly in the World Cup qualifying group, boss Giovanni Trapattoni can take heart in being named near the top of the table of earners.

The coach has built up a fortune of €25.2 million which places him in fourth place alongside Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini.

In third place is Arsenal’s Arsene Wenger whose fortune is valued at €34.8 million, a rise of €3.6 million on 2012.
