Cantona enjoyed pheasant-shooting trips during kung-fu kick ban

Eric Cantona enjoyed shooting game during his ban from football in 1995, according to Ned Kelly, the former head of security at Manchester United.

Cantona was banned for nine months after kicking a Crystal Palace supporter at Selhurst Park in January 1995.

Kelly describes how his role was to β€˜look after’ Cantona during the suspension, and explains how game shooting was something the Frenchman particularly enjoyed.
