Football England – Ang: In the middle of a clash with Cristiano Ronaldo, Rooney makes a confession

Still attached to Manchester United, Wayne Rooney advised the Mancunian club to get rid of Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese striker obviously didn’t like it and let his former teammate know, who confessed his jealousy.

The striker, author of 18 goals this season in all competitions, has failed to bring his team back into the title race in the Premier League, let alone in the Champions League. Worse, the Portuguese is the subject of controversy in England where observers believe that he no longer has the necessary physique. This is also the opinion of his former teammate Wayne Rooney who advised the Red Devils to eject CR7.

“Cristiano has aged”

 » He’s a threat in front of goal but in the game they need more and they need hungry young players “insisted Wayne Rooney. Suffice to say that Cristiano Ronaldo did not appreciate. Suddenly, when the ex-Mancunian posted a photo of the show “Monday Night Football” with consultant Jamie Carragher, number 7 left a comment as simple as cutting on Instagram: “ two jealous « . And the five-time Ballon d’Or winner was right about Wayne Rooney.
