After leaving Everton, Wayne Rooney called David Moyes to apologize.

Wayne Rooney left Everton at the age of 18, yet it was generally accepted that he was headed for greatness.

once all, the sky was indeed the limit once he declared himself to be the English football team’s future with his incredible first-ever Premier League goal, which he scored against Arsenal from long range.

David Seaman had no chance against his curving right-footed strike, which caused the rest of the division to sit up and take notice.

But it was always going to be difficult to become so famous so young, in a period of football history when things were not quite as organized as they are now.

Rooney has reflected on such struggles, which made him regret some of his juvenile deeds.

The 38-year-old, who smashed almost every goal scoring record set for him as a player, talked to Gary Neville on The Overlap and recounted leaving Everton as a teenager.

When he joined Manchester United, his reckless and impetuous behaviors as a young man made him regret them, to the point where he called David Moyes to have a conversation.

“Moyesy was really good for me,” he wrote. In fact, once I left the club, he sued me. When I left, I gave him a hard time. A few years after I left, I called him and apologized, realizing that as one ages, one begins to understand the reasons behind his actions.

“I tried, and I thought he was excluding me.” Compared to the other players, he was treating me a little differently. He was treating me [differently], but I don’t want to get into it.

One of them involved my jogging alone through the neighborhood park while wearing the physiotherapy device. I believe he believed that a player was receiving so much attention because it was unfamiliar to him.

However, looking back, I believe he was a great influence on me since, even as a young man, he was always there for me.

He made an effort to prevent me from believing that I was superior to who I was.

Rooney recently declared that two Everton players are his all-time favorites.
