- Wayne Rooney has declared that he would not feel comfortable receiving another Premier League winner's medal if Manchester City are stripped of their titles following alleged Financial Fair Play breaches.
- The comments follow speculation that Manchester City could face severe sanctions, including losing trophies won between 2009 and 2018, which could theoretically see Manchester United awarded the 2011-12 title.
- Speaking on the Stick To United podcast, Rooney argued that his Manchester United side did not deserve the 2011-12 crown after throwing away a significant points lead late in the season.
- Rooney expressed sympathy for Manchester City players who competed without knowledge of executive wrongdoing, stating he would be devastated if he were in their position.
- Rooney's stance contrasts directly with former teammates Rio Ferdinand and David de Gea, both of whom suggested on social media that they should be awarded the 2011-12 Premier League title.
