Rooney revealed that there was an issue with the toilets above the dressing rooms, causing sewage to leak through the ceiling onto the players and their belongings.

Rooney shared on The Wayne Rooney Show : “There was one at Sunderland, and I was actually suspended.

“So I wasn’t there, but above the dressing rooms was the toilet, and it leaked all over the players and their clothes.

“Our players, the United players. I wasn’t there; I was suspended. So I found it amusing.

“But yeah, I think there was a lot of whatever goes into the toilets all over the players and their clothes.

“And we’ve had experiences in dressing rooms where players have used the toilet before a game, and the toilets haven’t flushed properly. It’s quite a cramped space.”

Both teams will clash today in a crucial Premier League match at Old Trafford.
