Former Manchester United forward Wayne Rooney has been handed the chance of facing the Red Devils – if his present club Derby County can overcome Northampton in their FA Cup fourth-round replay.

Manchester United were paired with a trip to either Rooney’s current Championship side or League Two Northampton in the fifth round draw.

Rooney – after signing for Derby in the January window – has already had a hand in disposing of a Premier League side, playing a key role in the 1-0 third-round victory over Crystal Palace earlier this month.

United’s all-time top scorer enjoyed a glittering 13-year career at Old Trafford before returning to Everton in 2017.
