Rooney, 38 years of age and now in interim charge of Derby, joined United from Everton in 2004.
The former England striker had a glittering 13-year career at Old Trafford, scoring 253 times in 559 appearances and breaking Sir Bobby Charlton’s long-standing goal record in January 2017.
During his remarkable career at Old Trafford, Rooney won five Premier League titles, three League Cups, one FA Cup, one Europa League and one Champions League.
Rooney left for boyhood club Everton in 2017 before joining MLS outfit DC United prior to moving to Derby.
The former England and United captain is still adored by the United faithful thanks to his incredible service to the club during their glory years under legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
