London, Aug 24 : Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney’s new hair transplant will help him score more goals this season, his former United and England teammate Gary Neville has said.
Rooney, who had a 30,000 pound hair transplant surgery in June, has made a brilliant start in United’s opening matches of the Premier League.
The 25-year-old had also pointed to his new barnet after heading home the third goal in Monday’s 3-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur.
“Last year that would have skidded off Wayne Rooney’s head. But that new hair helped in getting the goal,’’ Sky Sports quoted Neville, as saying.
Rooney’s performance was short of satisfactory last year, with miserable World Cup displays and a crisis at the outset of last season.
Meanwhile, a close pal said: “Wayne’s over the moon with his new hair. If it gives him a bit extra on the pitch then that’s great too – although he’s always been pretty handy in the air.’’ (ANI)
