Wayne Rooney's mystery A few weeks ago, the English striker started to wear some old pairs of Nike T90. But why?

Usually, in today’s football, a player ends up under the spotlights as soon as he wears the latest pair of football boots, designed for him by his brand, or when - like Dybala - keeps everyone with baited breath while waiting to unveil which one will be his next partner. But the case that has kept all the fans on the edge of their chairs in the last day, is everything but usual. To draw the attention of the authorized personnel, in fact, has been the sudden change of boots by Wayne Rooney, back to Everton in the summer after becoming Man United and England all-time top scorer.

The mystery- if we can call it so - got even deeper today, when Rooney trained with yet another pair of vintage boots. The Englishman, in fact, wore a pair of Nike T90 Laser IV Clash, part of Swoosh’ collection for Euro 2012, firing up the conspiracy theories. And we like one in particular, that Nike would be preparing a custom shoe to “salute” Wayne’s career. Wouldn’t it be so romantic?
