Manchester United great Wayne Rooney has named his four Old Trafford greats, including a somewhat surprising name. The former striker is now manager of MLS side DC United and was recently included in the CBS Sports Golazo 'Mount Rushmore' of icons of United, along with Sir Alex Ferguson, Bobby Charlton, and Paul Scholes.

Rooney spent 13 years at Old Trafford, and is the club's record scorer having notched 253 goals in 559 appearances. He won five Premier League titles, three League Cups and one FA Cup with United as well as the Champions League and Europa League.

Since hanging up his boots the 37-year-old has moved into management. Also read: Sevilla defeat shows Ten Hag has to get ruthless with five United players After a spell with Derby County, he joined DC United, where he spent a year of his playing career, ahead of this MLS season.
