WAYNE ROONEY is back in full training � 24 days after suffering an horrific thigh injury.
The Manchester United star was expected to be out for two months after gashing his right leg in an accidental clash with Fulham�s Hugo Rodallega on August 25.
But Roo, 26, has stunned United�s medics and has been back in training for five days. There is even a slight possibility he could be on the bench for tonight�s Champions League opener at home to Galatasaray.
The England star will almost certainly be available for Sunday�s showstopper with Liverpool at Anfield.
Rooney, who is wearing light strapping to avoid infection, took his first steps towards a comeback last week with a light outdoor session and gym work.
But yesterday�s session was a giant stride forwards and gave United a massive boost ahead of their trip to Merseyside.
