Robbie Keane was all smiles as he posed for a photo with his family on Christmas Day.

The footballing great posed for a festive snap with wife Claudine and his two sons Robert and Hudson as they stood in front of their Christmas tree and a large Santa statue.

But Ireland's all-time leading goalscorer also paid tribute to "all the love ones that are not with us" and shared a photo of his father Robert Sr mother Anne, who passed away in October.

Keane wrote: "Merry Christmas from my family to yours. Thinking of all the love ones that are not with us."

Ireland women's captain Katie McCabe was among the many famous names to comment on the post to send Keane Christmas wishes.

She commented: "Happy Christmas Rob."
