Wayne Rooney has no chance of figuring in England's group matches at the World Cup but could be ready for the knockout stages, according to sports injury expert Roger Roberton.
Rooney broke the fourth metatarsal in his right foot during Manchester United's 3-0 defeat by Chelsea on Saturday, sparking fears he could miss the entire tournament which begins in 40 days.
"Wayne is young and has a good team around him. The main thing is he mustn't do any hard-impact exercise," Roberton told BBC Radio Five Live's Sportsweek programme. "It's better for him to swim. Being young it can take between four and six weeks for this injury to repair properly."
