When Everton travels to Manchester United on Saturday, TNT Sports will feature Wayne Rooney as their featured analyst.

Fans of both teams consider 38-year-old former England captain Rooney, who began his career at Everton and went on to become United’s all-time top scorer, to be a legend.

Rooney will weigh in on the crucial Premier League lunchtime match with former United teammate Rio Ferdinand and Joleon Lescott’s pitch side. Everton needs the points to survive, while United has to win badly to increase their prospects of playing in Europe.

Rooney, who made a standout performance in the BBC’s coverage of United’s FA Cup victory over Nottingham Forest last week, is making his most recent TV appearance. After his 19-year playing career, Rooney has also previously appeared on Sky, so TNT landing him for this weekend is a major achievement.

Former Manchester United player Rooney has already started his career as a manager and coach, having held positions at Birmingham City, Derby, and DC United.

He has expressed his desire to return to coaching in the future and his intention to do so at some point. But as he establishes himself as a superb and perceptive pundit, Rooney is winning over more and more TV networks.

In addition to being a vocal player, Rooney has five championships under his belt and can provide knowledgeable commentary on his previous teams. He’ll be among the biggest names available, therefore it’s likely that TV networks would try to sign him as a regular analyst.

Throughout his career, Rooney played for both Everton and United 

With his next TV contract, Match of the Day may look for a shake-up, and businesses will be lining up to hire him.

Presenting from Old Trafford, Lynsey Hipgrave is joined by Lucy Ward and Darren Fletcher for commentary. The pregame on TNT Sports 1 for Manchester United vs. Everton begins at 11:00 a.m., hosted by Jules Breach.

Rooney’s recent admission that he declined Misfits’ offer to enter the boxing ring demonstrated his resolve to continue playing football.
