How Roy Keane's namesake rebuilt the legendary Man Utd captain's career in cardboard

Dan Keane, a trading card collector who runs the YouTube channel Sports Cards UK, says he spent 18 months completing the full Roy Keane Topps Pristine Road to UEFA Euro 2024 rainbow, accumulating every parallel of that base card set. He says the hardest part was securing the final one-of-one Black Pristine Refractor, negotiating for almost eight months before agreeing on a €400 price, then waiting three anxious weeks for delivery. He paired it with a previous €339 one-of-one Gold Swirl Chrome SuperFractor. Keane’s “cardboard” project is also tied to family stories: Dan says he told a friend’s circle that Roy Keane was his uncle. He’s a Fulham fan now, despite United memories.
