Wayne Rooney is one of the most decorated footballers in England‘s history, but the scale of just quite how many awards he has won isn’t truly apparent until you see it with your own eyes. 

The former Manchester United and Three Lions skipper is one of the most technically gifted players ever produced in this country, and would go on to hold goal scoring records for both club and country. 

For years he was the star for Man United under Sir Alex Ferguson when they were among the very best sides in the game, winning three consecutive Premier Leagues from 2006 to 2009 and the Champions League 2008. 

Though Harry Kane has since surpassed Rooney’s national record, there are few in the game across the world who can rival the sheer number of trophies, medals, gongs and honours that he can boast. 

His son, Kai, who is looking to follow in his illustrious father’s footsteps as an U16 at United, has shared a glimpse of Rooney’s absurd array of awards in his trophy room at home. 

Some footballers will go their whole careers without winning a single cup but the Plymouth boss has so many he needs an entire room to showcase everything he has won from his 19-year professional career.

As the camera comes down a set of stairs into the room, viewers can see three entire walls dedicated to silverware, as well as a separate cabinet in the centre filled with some of Rooney’s 120 England caps. 

The first wall contains Man of the Match and Player of the Month awards from the Premier League, the PFA Player’s Player of the Year trophy, several England caps, prize bottles of champagne and top scorer awards. 

The camera then shows off the majority of Rooney’s England caps in the centre of the room, before panning to a display case of his replica trophies. 

On the top shelf can be seen each of the 39-year-old’s Five Premier Leagues, four League Cups, his single FA Cup, Europa League, Champions League and Club World Cup trophies, and two signed match balls. 

There are seven more balls in the cabinet for a total of nine, having scored seven Premier League hat-tricks alone. 

But pride of place in the glass display case is given to the shirt from his Champions League win in 2008, complete with the medal he and his Man United team-mates earned on that night in Moscow. 

Next up is another set of England caps, as well as a commemorative gold one given in honour of his 100th appearance for the Three Lions, as well as more Man of the Match awards and goalscoring gongs and a special Premier League award given in the 20th top-flight season. 

Perhaps the most impressive thing about the entire awe-inspiring video, there appear to be even more awards in the back of the room as well as some shirts from memorable nights that don’t make the cut for the video.

Rooney arguably has not received the true extent of the praise that he warrants from his glistening playing career; only two players have scored more Premier League goals than him, while he is also the fourth-highest assist maker. 

A player who erupted onto the scene in 2004 with Everton, Rooney was quickly snapped up by United, his pace, power, technical gifts and drive making him a future Premier League legend.

Rooney has since transitioned into management, though he has found the dugout somewhat more difficult to master than the pitch itself. 

After spells with DC United, Derby County and Birmingham, Rooney is currently struggling in the relegation zone of the Championship with Plymouth Argyle, winning just four of their 18 games.
