When football is in the blood, it is inevitable to follow that instinct to follow a family tradition, something that seems to start perfectly in the case of the Rooney family. Precisely in networks, the performances of Wayne Rooney with the Red Devils are always remembered with great emotion, such as the great matches in the derbies between Manchester United and Manchester City in the years between 2000 and 2010.

This trip back in time comes from the fact that his eldest son seems to be following in his footsteps and showing great quality in play as he did a few years ago wearing United's colors in the Premier League and demonstrating that quality as a scorer. Kai Rooney, 13 years old, scored one of the two goals with which the Reds defeated City in the final of the U-13 National North Cup.

Kai posted on Instagram, where he has more than 103,000 followers and his verified account, some photos from the celebrations, including his champion's medal and a trophy, along with photos of him with the entire team as they celebrated the victory in the match, match that they won with a score of 2 to 1 and that I give them the championship in this category of the Premier League.

Since last season, with only 12 years of age, Kai Rooney became the center of attention of the Under-13 category of the Red Devils due to his enormous capacity. Although we are talking about children's competition, the talent is seen to be running through the veins and stands out above the rest, to show his huge statistics. In the 2021-2022 season, Kai scored 58 goals and provided 26 assists.

The future of Kai Rooney.

At Manchester United they are sowing the seeds so that in the not too distant future the greatest stars of English football will return after some very difficult recent years. One of those jewels in which they have high hopes is Kai Rooney, who will seek to continue his process in basic forces, and why not? One day break his father's record as the top scorer in United history.
