Bruno Fernandes has accused Roy Keane of telling a `lie` about his pursuit of the Premier League assists record.
Manchester United’s captain secured the outright record for assists in a season by taking his tally to 21 in Sunday’s 3-0 win at Brighton.
In a podcast, Keane suggested Fernandes was prioritising individual glory over team’s interests, describing him as being at the centre of a `circus act`.
Bruno hit back, saying Keane had put untrue `words in my mouth` about the assist record and accused him of lying.
Keane then appeared to stoke the feud with a post about a donkey on his Instagram account, seemingly in reply to Bruno.
