David Beckham has insisted that Roy Keane will regain the Manchester United captaincy when he is fit.

"As soon as Roy is fit again, he will be captain. There are no doubts about that.

"I can't understand why people would understand any different as Roy Keane is Manchester United captain and I'd feel difficult captaining a team in which Roy was also playing.

"Of course it's nice putting an armband on, whether it's at club, Sunday league or England level. It's been a great experience for me but in my eyes, and I think in everyone else's eyes, Roy will be captain again when he comes back."
