Manchester United have mapped out the next stage of Kai Rooney’s burgeoning soccer career, hoping to see the 16-year-old follow in the footsteps of his record-breaking father, Wayne.
Rooney Sr. is the Old Trafford club’s all-time leading goalscorer from a 13-year stay at United between 2004 and 2017. His 253 goals surpassed the previous record of 249, set by club icon Sir Bobby Charlton, that had stood for 44 years since 1973. He also won 12 major trophies, including five Premier League titles and the Champions League.
