"I'm a big Celtic fan, I went to Ibrox to watch the Old Firm, to watch Celtic there and I sat in the Celtic end and I think they were aware of that, so when we went in 2010 they battered me and it was not long after I think I asked to leave Manchester United and then signed, so I was under pressure to perform again."
"It's well known I think that I'm a Celtic fan and it's probably one of my biggest regrets not playing for Celtic at some point."
Rangers and Celtic face each other in an Old Firm derby at Ibrox on Sunday with both teams competing for the Scottish Premiership title. Rangers currently sit second while Celtic is in third, both trailing Hearts. A Rangers victory would close the gap to four points, while a Celtic win would move them into second place, six points behind Hearts with a game in hand. Wayne Rooney, a self-proclaimed Celtic fan, has publicly stated his support for the Bhoys and revealed that not playing for Celtic represents one of his greatest regrets in his football career. Rooney played four times against Celtic during his Manchester United career, recording two wins, one draw, and one loss.
