Last summer, Wayne Rooney, who left Liverpool's Everton and moved to the "DC United" team in the MLS league, is convinced that he could still play at the highest level.
According to English, most people did not expect that after a rather lackluster season in the ranks of Everton, the Englishman would perform solidly across the Atlantic, but the player himself never doubted his abilities.
"Honestly, I know that in terms of quality, I could still play in the Premier League. I've always been confident in myself, so I always demand a lot from myself.
I came to the US hoping to perform well. Some people did not expect me to do so well, so they were surprised and that is completely normal, but I never doubted my abilities," former England striker said in an interview with "CNN Sport".
W. Rooney has already played 21 matches in the ranks of DC United, during which he scored 12 goals and made 6 assists.
