Watches are must-have for Premier League players, but not for reason you think

Roy Keane tells a story about being introduced to a watch dealer by his Manchester United team-mate Lee Sharpe. Wrist accessories were hardly Keane’s style but he was willing to pay the £1,150 that he thought was the price. Turns out, the watch cost £11,500, much to the amusement of the Old Trafford dressing room. “I still have it, and it’s gone up in value. Who’s laughing now?” Keane joked.
