The Manchester United and England’s record goalscorer, Rooney, quit the Premier League last June after agreeing to join Major League Soccer side DC United.
Rooney, 33, scored 12 goals as he dragged the club off the bottom of the Eastern Conference and into the playoffs with a number of impressive displays.
And while he’s clearly enjoying himself in the US, Rooney still believes he’s still good enough and hungry enough to play in the Premier League.
“If I’m being honest, I know quality wise, I can still play in the Premier League,” Rooney told CNN Sport.
“I know that. I’ve always been a confident person, and so I have high expectations of myself.
“And yeah, I’ve come here expecting to do well. And I think there was a surprise from people who have their opinions, which is fair enough, but I never doubted myself at all.”
