Manchester United legends Paul Scholes and Nicky Butt seen on night out in Cork

They were later witnessed in the well-known Washington Street pub, Reardens, and were enjoying talking with locals, Cork Beo reported.

The Class of 92 graduates, known for coming through the United academy at the time, did two live audience speaking events, one in Limerick on Friday and one in Cork the following day.

Roy Keane was also seen visiting his home county of Cork in the last week, after arriving with fellow Sky Sports co-hosts Gary Neville and Liverpool's Jamie Carragher.

The trio visited Keane's old clubs, Rockmount and Cobh, and were also seen in Mayfield, where Roy Keane grew up, chatting with people living there.
