Wayne Rooney was at the KDB Cup this weekend. Enough to risk some predictions on the Devils’ chances at the Euro.
At the end of each season, the future of football is written in Drongen, near Ghent. This is where the KDB Cup is organized, under the watchful eye of our Kevin De Bruyne national. In recent years, talents like Jérémy Doku, Gavi, Charles De Ketelaere and Jamal Musiala have distinguished themselves there.
At the end of the season, another star was present in the stands. Wayne Rooney was in fact there to watch the matches of his son Kai, aged 14 and already considered a great talent at the Manchester United training center.
“It’s the first time I’ve come here and I loved it. It’s very well organized and I enjoyed the matches,” the former striker told Sporza. Rooney makes a brave face against bad luck. Because everything didn’t go as planned for his offspring: “He was injured during his first match. So he didn’t play much.”
The Devils absent from Wayne Rooney’s favorites
The old legend also spoke about the Red Devils. To hear it, it will take a little time for Belgium to seek the top places again: The team is in a transition phase. Some players are already a little older and young people are now joining them. THE Red Devils will definitely get their chance, because over the years we have already seen how good they are in big tournaments.”
But he does not place the Devils as favorites: “For me, the main candidates are England, France and Portugal. Even if Germany will also be dangerous at home.”
