Rooney injury not serious

6:45 pm on 11 May 2010

Manchester United's assistant manager Mike Phelan says Wayne Rooney will be fit in time to play a full part in England's World Cup campaign.

Rooney left the field late in United's 4-0 win over Stoke at Old Trafford yesterday with a recurrence of the groin problem that's troubled him since last month, but United's management have assured everyone the injury isn't serious.

England manager Fabio Capello is due to name his World Cup squad tonight.
