The reason is that next month Manchester United U-18 are set to face Peterborough United in the third round of the FA Youth Cup. Reports indicate that the match will be played at Old Trafford. This means Kai Rooney could play for the first time in his career at the stadium where his father spent most of his playing days.
Currently, Kai is recovering from a leg injury, but doctors predict he should be back in time for the cup match.
