Wayne Rooney poses with glam wife Coleen & Man Utd star son Kai, 14, as he wins award at ‘best night of social calendar’
MANCHESTER UNITED legend Wayne Rooney has added yet another award to his illustrious legacy.
Wayne, 38, is United’s all-time record goalscorer and also held the same status for England when he broke Sir Bobby Charlton’s record in 2015 before Harry Kane overtook him last year.

And now the legendary striker has been honoured by Legends of Football, an annual awards ceremony that sees the worlds of football and music come together to honour the greatest names in the game.
The event has been described as the “best night in the football social calendar” and this year’s ceremony honours the ex-Everton star and England’s most capped women’s player Fara Williams.
The Plymouth manager attended the gala at Grosvenor House in London alongside his wife Coleen and their son Kai, who is following in his dad’s footsteps at United’s academy.
Wayne recently said: “I am delighted to announce that I will receive the 2024 Legends of Football award.
“The award has been previously awarded to some of the biggest names in the game, to be recognised alongside all of them including some of my teammates, opponents and footballing icons means a lot.
“Throughout my life and career; music has always been a massive influence and inspiration for me, and to see how Nordoff and Robbins use music to help people connect and communicate is truly special.
“I’m really looking forward to celebrating with Fara for a great night of football, music and fundraising at Grosvenor House on October 7th.”
Wayne amassed a total of 253 goals and 139 assists in 559 appearances during his 13-year stint at United before his departure in 2017.

The young forward is the eldest of Wayne’s four sons, with Klay, Kit and Cass his younger brothers.
