Wayne Rooney (34) is a true living legend on the side of Old Trafford. Quintuple winner of the Premier League and winner of the Champions League (2008) or the Europa League (2017) when he played for Manchester United (2004-2017), the current coach-player of Derby County , in Championship, will always be welcome at the Red Devils. Ryan Giggs (46), another legend with more than 1000 professional matches with MU, his club forever between 1994 and 2014, thinks that the return of the best goalscorer in the history of Manchester United and the Three Lions to the bench ‘Old Trafford is inevitable.
“I know Wayne. When I was at United, towards the end, he was starting to graduate. We saw him doing his practical sessions. I spent a lot of time (with Louis van Gaal) in the analysts’ office, where we used to analyze opponents. Wayne often came to see us. He wanted to study, he wanted to work. And he’s a footballer. On the football side, he knows what he is talking about. Some people say, as I discovered, that being a good player does not always do (a good manager). But if you like the game and are ready to work, our advantage is to have played at the highest level. He worked under Sir Alex (Ferguson) as well as international managers. He was there when Jose (Mourinho) was there, and now he’s working with another Dutch trainer (Phillip Cocu, manager of Derby County). So he will have known different ways of working, which can also help, “said Ryan Giggs at The Athletic about Wayne Rooney. No doubt such a comeback will be validated by Manchester United fans in the future.
