๐ŸŽฅ Wayne Rooney shows he's still got it as he prepares for Soccer Aid ๐Ÿ”ฅ To many, Wayne Rooney is the best English player of the last 30 years if not longer. With the second most caps (120) and second most goals (53) for the Three Lions, it's hard to argue against, and he's still got it if his training videos for Soccer Aid are anything to go by. The 40-year-old was put through his paces in a shooting drill and despite being far from his athletic prime, his touch and shooting remains at an elite level.

Rooney will be playing in his third Soccer Aid after starring in 2021 and 2025, scoring the opening goal in a 5-4 loss to the World XI at Old Trafford last year. The likes of Jermain Defoe, Jill Scott, Robbie Williams and Olly Murs will also be part of the English side this year but, like in his playing days, the Manchester United legend will be the main man.
