Roy Keane has Sky studio in stitches with criticism of Newcastle star’s Michael Jackson celebration

Roy Keane was not impressed by Will Osula’s dance moves when celebrating a goal he scored for Newcastle on Sunday.

The forward celebrated in style after doubling his side’s lead against West Ham as the Magpies secured a 3-1 win at St James’ Park.

Osula raced onto a through ball from Jacob Ramsey before finishing off a flowing Newcastle move.

His strike followed Nick Woltemade’s opener for the hosts at St. James’ Park.

Meanwhile, he produced a pre-planned routine to celebrate his sixth Premier League goal of the season.

Osula was thrown a white glove before being mobbed by his teammates in front of the corner flag.

Once they began heading back to their own half, though, he pulled on the glove to emulate Michael Jackson.

The 22-year-old then recreated some of the pop superstar’s iconic dance moves.

They included his trademark leg kick whilst wearing a white glove similar to that worn by Jackson during his career.

His celebration caught Keane’s attention in the Sky Sports studio at half time as he was shown a replay alongside presenter Mark Chapman and pundit Micah Richards.

Reacting to the dance, Keane admitted: “I mean it’s not a bad little move, don’t get me wrong.”

His deadpan delivery left Chapman and Richards in stitches before Keane continued.

The former Manchester United captain added: “He can move, the kid, but time and a place.

“He can do that in a nightclub tonight in Newcastle.”

It would not be Osula’s last goal of the game, though, as he grabbed his second and Newcastle’s third in the 64th minute. A wonder strike by Taty Castellanos proved to be a mere consolation for the Hammers, who could be relegated before their next match.

The brace takes the Danish striker’s tally for the season to nine goals across all competitions for Eddie Howe’s side.

Meanwhile, he has now scored six goals in his last seven Premier League appearances dating back to his strike against Manchester United on March 4.

Osula had already been enjoying his most prolific league campaign for the Magpies.

Prior to this season, he had scored just one Premier League goal since joining the club from Sheffield United in August 2024.

A win over the Hammers would also maintain Newcastle’s slim hopes of European qualification.

With one match remaining this season, they sit three points adrift of Brentford in eighth place.

However, a ninth place finish could be enough to secure Conference League football if Aston Villa win the Europa League and finish fifth.

West Ham are two points off safety going into the final day of the season and would need to win at home to Leeds and see Tottenham Hotspur lose their final two matches of the season to beat the drop.
