Manchester United are gearing up for an important few days. First, they will take on St. Etienne in the second leg of their Europa League clash, a game which will be followed by their League Cup final.
The Red Devils will lock horns with Southampton at Wembley. Sunday’s game will be the English giants first and biggest shot at silverware this season, with victory probable.
Unfortunately, Jose Mourinho will be without one attacker for the final. According to The Times, captain and legendary forward Wayne Rooney could miss the Wembley tie due to injury.
The Englishman has been sidelined for the past few games due to muscle injury. The club’s all-time record goalscorer, having missed Man United’s last three games, won’t recover in time for Sunday’s game.
Rooney has seen his role at Old Trafford diminish over the seasons. Jose Mourinho’s arrival has been the nail on the coffin that is Wayne’s time with the 20-time Premier League winners.
Rumors continue to circulate linking the Three Lions ace with a move to China, a place that can offer him regular playing time whilst meeting his wage demands. The League Cup could have been Rooney’s last shot to play in a final for Man United.
