The wife of Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney has hit back at negative comments made about the England international's recent hair transplant.

Coleen took to Twitter to respond to a user, who was mocking the 27-year-old for undergoing a second reported £15,000 procedure following his initial op in 2011.

Following the transplant, Rooney was spotted without his usual crop of hair, prompting a Twitter user to write: "What's going on with @Wayne- Rooney hair transplant what a waste of money!"

Coleen responded: "That's what happens!! It falls out before it grows back!!"

Meanwhile, United manager David Moyes has insisted that Rooney will not be sold this summer.
