Rooney on Fergie texts
MANCHESTER UNITED legend Wayne Rooney revealed he still keeps in touch with iconic manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
However, there is a catch as they only contact each other after Rooney, 39, gets sacked from the dugout.
The ex-Everton star joined Gary Neville, Ian Wright, Roy Keane and Jill Scott on The Overlap, via Sky Bet, and answered fan questions.
Neville read out one of them for the panel, which read: “Do you ever hear from your old managers?”
Wright confirmed that he still keeps in touch with his former gaffers.
And that was when Rooney revealed: “Every time I get sacked Fergie gives me a text.”
The former centre-forward’s fellow panelists immediately burst into laughter.
Scott asked: What does it [ the text] say?”
However, the United great opted against sharing any details of the exchange.
Instead, Rooney simply said: “He gives me a text every time I get sacked”
