Rooney ‘back for England’
13 April 2012
Wayne Rooney will be fit for England's World Cup qualifiers against Kazakhstan and Belarus.
The Manchester United striker injured his ankle during the second half of his side's 3-0 Champions League win in Aalborg on Tuesday and feared he may have damaged ligaments.
But today United said the injury was not serious enough to rule him out of international duty, starting on Saturday week, although he may not be fit enough for United's trip to Blackburn this weekend.
A club spokesperson said: "Wayne has an ankle injury, but he should recover in time for England's matches."
