AC Milan midfielder David Beckham has labeled Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney as one of the world’s best after he again ran riot in the Champions League.
United won 4-0 in the second leg at Old Trafford on Wednesday night and 7-2 on aggregate and after the match, Beckham spoke highly of his England teammate who scored twice to set up the win.
“He's such an exceptional talent," Beckham told ITV.
"I think without a doubt he's one of the best, if not the best, player at the moment along with (Cristiano) Ronaldo and (Lionel) Messi."
