Man Utd icon Wayne Rooney’s son forced to go to extreme lengths at school to convince pals his dad is famous footballer

WAYNE ROONEY’S youngest son has to take old Match Attax cards into school to prove to his classmates that his dad was once a famous footballer.

Manchester United‘s all-time top scorer, 38, was sacked by Birmingham on Tuesday after just 15 games in the job.

Rooney has also coached Derby and DC United since retiring from playing in January 2021.

But wife Coleen has now revealed their children’s friends have no idea who he is.

She then went on to explain how five-year-old son Cass had to bring in an old Match Attax card for kids to realise Rooney was a footballer.

Coleen told the Happy Mum Happy Baby podcast: “Obviously, if you’re in the public eye, you do get pecked a lot at parties and in spaces where they will ask you questions, they’ll ask your opinion on stuff.

“Kids, they haven’t got a clue.

“Wayne nowadays, he goes to the school and because he’s not playing anymore none of the younger kids know who he is.

“He’s not important.

“And my youngest took a Match Attax card in and it was an old one of Wayne and he said ‘my friend didn’t know my dad used to play football’.

“It’s refreshing.”

The couple have four children – Kai, 13, Klay, ten, Kit, seven, and Cass, five.

Rooney is widely considered one of England’s greatest ever players.

Once the world’s most expensive teenager when he moved to Man Utd, Rooney went on to become a club legend as their all-time leading scorer with 253 goals.

The forward is his country’s most capped outfield player and until this year held the England goal-scoring record with 53 goals.

However, he left the Premier League to play in America in 2018.

And he hit the headlines for the wrong reasons on Tuesday when Birmingham dismissed him following just two wins from 15 matches as Blues boss.

The Championship side were sixth when he took over, but have now slipped to 20th, just six points adrift of the relegation zone.
