Wayne Rooney may need surgery after hurting his wrist saving a Jordan Pickford shot during a recording for a BBC show.

The former England and Manchester United captain was wearing a cast while he did punditry work for the FA Cup final.

The 40-year-old explained what had happened and the next steps in his recovery during Saturday's coverage.

"Well, as you see I was in goal at Everton," Rooney said as a recording of him diving to his left to push away a shot from England and Everton goalkeeper Pickford was screened.

"Look at that for a save. I saved that and then hurt my hand, so I'm seeing a surgeon on Monday to see if I need surgery."
