Where’s Rooney Puzzle Goes Viral

A Where’s Rooney puzzle has gone viral as speculation over his future hits fever pitch.

Ladbrokes dreamt up a fun puzzle days before Roy Hodgson is due to name the squad travelling to Euro 2016 in France. The bookies expect the tournament to break Euro betting records with over £500 million wagered across the industry.

England are currently the 9/1 fourth favourites to lift the trophy, having been 12/1 before the friendly win over Germany.

Alex Donohue, at www.ladbrokes.com, said: “The patriotic plunge on England came early after the win over Germany and it has shown little sign of stopping. Whilst finding Rooney in the puzzle is a struggle, it would be a shock if Roy was to leave him out of the final squad for France.

“We thought commissioning this puzzle would be a fun way to whet appetite of footy fans with less than a month to go until the start of the tournament that we think is going to smash previous betting records.”

The England and Manchester superstar has some of the most striking facial features of any professional footballer – but can you pick him out from among the other football legends featured below.
