Wayne Rooney took to social media to express the pride he felt for his oldest son Kai after the teenager came off the bench to make his first appearance at Old Trafford on Friday evening for Manchester United’s Under-18s.
Rooney Jr is only 16 but was called upon by Darren Fletcher in extra time of an FA Youth Cup tie against Derby County. With the contest still goalless after 90 minutes of normal time, Kai Rooney emerged wearing the No. 18 shirt which his father had worn for Everton at the start of his own footballing career.
