Ex-Everton striker Campbell: Rooney will be a general

Published on: 05 August 2017

Kevin Campbell says former Everton teammate Wayne Rooney returns as a leader.

Campbell played with a teenage Rooney before he left for Manchester United.

He told the Liverpool Echo: "He's made history, broken records and made his mark on the game.

“He left a boy and came back a man.

“To now have him in and around the squad, someone who knows how to win trophies, knows how to control games – I think it's vital.

“He'll be the man, he'll be the general on the pitch and off it. He'll have an impact on the older players at the club, and also on the younger pros as well. With someone like him, you can only learn from that experience."
