Manchester United called on Irish actor Barry Keoghan to star in their latest kit launch video.

The video shows the Dubliner walking the streets of Manchester, attending a park game, and speaking about his love of the game.

The 31-year-old is a cousin of Frank Stapleton, who played for United in the 1980s, and the former Ireland international also makes a cameo in the video.

United have previously released promotional videos with former stars like Roy Keane and Eric Cantona, along with celebrities like rapper Stormzy.

This time, BAFTA award winner and Academy Award nominee Keoghan helped them to launch their third strip, which is white with red and black designs and the club’s signature devil as a crest.

Current United players Luke Shaw, Alejandro Garnacho, Rasmus Hojlund and Kobbie Mainoo also appear in the video.

Keoghan has often spoken about his love of football, and the United fan dreamed of a career in the sport before making it as an actor.
