Wayne Rooney was an English international and was on the pitch for Manchester United for 13 years. His son Kai also shows impressive achievements.
Like the father, the son? Looks like that. At least in the case of Wayne Rooney. The son of the Manchester United icon, Kai Rooney, plays at the former club of the English ex-national player. The 15-year-old also impresses as a striker and offensive player-and has now even skipped several years in the club.
Because Kai Rooney can be there with the U19 of the club in Croatia at the so -called “Mladen Ramljak Memorial Tournament”. This was announced by the son of ex-Everton professionals on Instagram in his story.
Kai Rooney posted a photo that was taken at night and wrote that it would soon go to the U19 tournament. The competition starts on Thursday. The team of Manchester United can be found in Group A with SK Rapid Vienna, Dinamo Zagreb and Juventus Turin. The group games will be played by Saturday, and the placements will be played from Sunday.
Kai Rooney is one of the hope. He came to the Manchester United youth academy in 2020 and has been delivering since then. According to his father, he is right with the pressure to bear the name “Rooney”.
Wayne Rooney also explained the BBC in an interview in July: “He has great coaches at Manchester United, so I behave. I speak to him, but for me it is all about his mentality and attitude to ensure that he continues to enjoy it – that’s the most important thing for me.”
