Paul Pogba described former Manchester United team-mate Wayne Rooney as a legend after England s all-time leading goalscorer retired from international football.
After 53 goals and 119 caps for England, national team captain Rooney called it quits on Wednesday.
Rooney had not represented England since November last year but a recall appeared on the cards having hit the ground running at boyhood club Everton following his arrival from United, scoring two goals in as many Premier League matches.
However, after becoming only the second player to reach 200 Premier League goals, Rooney has opted to focus on his club career.
You always miss a captain and a legend like him because he s got experience and he s won trophies. Pogba told Sky Sports.

Koeman s legacy as coach at Camp Nou may be in priming the likes of teenagers Fati and Pedri for long and successful careers with Barcelona.
Fati turns 18 on Saturday, while 17-year-old Pedri has his birthday in November.
Both have the backing of Koeman, who has not shied away from using them in Barcelona s biggest games recently.
He started with the duo in El Clasico last weekend, with Fati scoring Barcelona s goal in a 3-1 defeat to Real Madrid. Pedri was then in the XI for the Champions League clash with Juventus on Wednesday, and Fati came on midway through the second half as the Blaugrana scored a morale-boosting 2-0 victory.
With four goals in his opening five LaLiga games this season, Fati is outshining even Messi, who has netted just once.
Jadon Sancho remained at Borussia Dortmund for this season, but things are not quite going to plan for the England man.
This year s blockbuster will he, won t he transfer saga saw Manchester United repeatedly linked with a €120million swoop for the winger, only for no such move to materialise.
Instead, Sancho was expected to star again in the Bundesliga ahead of more speculation in the coming windows.
But while Dortmund have started well in 2020-21 and are level on points with leaders Bayern Munich ahead of this week s Klassiker, Sancho has not been so impressive.
He has played five of BVB s six league games but is yet to score and has supplied just two assists in a disappointing early return.

Splitgate saw an explosion of popularity in 2021, and though it earned more than a few fans with its “Halo meets Portal” elevator pitch, the multiplayer shooter was obviously no on the same level as other, major multiplayer shooters on the market. That was something that developer 1047 Games, too, was seemingly keenly aware of, with the studio emphasizing that the recently-announced Splitgate 2 is a full-fledged AAA production.
Writing on Xbox Wire, 1047 Games’ head of marketing Hilary Goldstein said that one of the development team’s primary goals was to ensure that Splitgate 2, unlike its predecessor, is a full-fledged AAA experience.
“How do you follow up a viral hit? Just ma…

The first EFL promotion places could be confirmed this Saturday, with Portsmouth, Stockport and Wrexham all looking for the results to rubber-stamp their elevation.
Here, the PA news agency looks at what is required in each division.
Championship
Rotherham are down and nothing else will be decided this weekend at either end of the table, though Southampton will secure a play-off place unless they lose and Coventry and Preston both win.
League One
Portsmouth will be confirmed as a Championship team for next season if they beat third-placed Bolton.
Should Pompey drop points, they can still be promoted on Saturday if they at least match the results of both second-placed Derby and fourth-placed Peterborough, who face Leyton Orient and Oxford respectively.
