Roo cropped from United’s Facebook cover photo
WAYNE Rooney’s United future was plunged into fresh doubt after being removed from the club’s Facebook cover image.
The United captain is expected to leave Old Trafford this summer after being pushed to the fringes of Jose Mourinho’s squad.
But he insists he is still to make a final decision – instead considering his options while holidaying with his family in Greece.
United appeared to give the clearest indication yet that their captain will depart after wiping him from advertising on their Facebook page.
Rooney had been used alongside Paul Pogba, Ander Herrera and Jesse Lingard to promote the club’s new Adidas away strip.
But the latest image on their page, which has 73 million likes, now just features Pogba, Herrera and Lingard.
Eagle-eyed fans spotted the change, sparking widespread reaction on social media.
United have since removed the original image altogether – leaving the one without Rooney in place.
The 31-year-old rejected a move to China earlier this year and the Far East remains an option this summer.
He is adamant Everton are the only other Premier League club he would play for if he remains in England. America is also a possibility. Speaking last month, Rooney said: “There’s lots of offers on the table, both in England, abroad and really that’s what I have to decide on.
“I’ve played for two Premier League clubs and they’re the only two Premier League clubs I’ll play for.
“I just have to make a decision in terms of a football decision, and that’s what I’ll do. I’ll do that the next few weeks with my family while I’m away and, honestly, as soon as I know what’s going on then, I’m sure you will know.”
