Rooney in Man Utd squad for Swansea trip

Wayne Rooney will be in Manchester United's squad for the season opener at Swansea City.

Rooney will be on the substitutes' bench at Swansea, following his 67-minute midweek outing for England, after missing all of United's warm-up games with injuries.

If he comes on it will be his first game for the club since May 5 against Chelsea, who have had two bids for him rejected.

It is understood Rooney has assured David Moyes of his full commitment if selected.
