Rooney to wear No.10 for Everton

Everton striker Wayne Rooney will wear the number 10 shirt for the Merseyside outfit next season, the Premier League side confirmed.

The England international, who joined the Toffees on Sunday afternoon from Manchester United, has signed a two-year contract at the club.

Rooney wore number ’10′ jersey during his almost entire career at the Old Trafford, and he will continue with that number at Goodison Park as Romelu Lukaku, who had previously worn that shirt, and the Belgian is ready to move in the opposite direction.
