What next for Kai Rooney?
Despite being so impressive in these clips, Kai is still only 14, and will likely begin the coming season as an U15 player alongside the son of Michael Carrick.
However with the talent Kai has, from turning 15 onwards, he’ll be fighting to get a chance up a few age brackets with U16 football and even U18 football possible if he impresses.
With all the talent currently at Carrington, including the potential addition of Chido Obi-Martin, Kai has a tough challenge to make it all the way, but he has the best possible role model to help give him the chance of doing so.
It would be poetic to one day see him in the senior team at Old Trafford, following in his father’s footsteps, but he has a long way to go just yet.
