Jake Rooney’s injury has been officially confirmed, according to the most recent Derby County news from Derbyshire Live. Rooney was hurt against Bolton Wanderers.
After Derby County revealed the defender had damaged knee ligaments, Jake Rooney appears to be in for a protracted period of time on the sidelines.
The center-back was taken off on a stretcher during the weekend’s 2-1 loss at Bolton after scans revealed he had torn the anterior cruciate ligament on his right knee.
After just 12 minutes of the League One match, Rooney awkwardly fell while attempting to retain the ball in play and instantly brought his hand up in apparent anguish.

Derby County has the numbers, but a lack of spark during the transfer deadline was demonstrated.
Before Rooney emerged from the tunnel to cheers from both sets of supporters, several Derby players who were around the event immediately requested for assistance and a substitute.
Although a timetable for his comeback has not been given, the 20-year-old’s absence is a significant setback to Derby given how well he performed in victories over Fleetwood and Peterborough.
After a strong campaign under Paul Warne the previous season, Rooney agreed to a new three-year contract in the summer.
And it was believed that this season he would develop into a dependable member of the first squad.
“Just my general 50-year-old head knows quite a bit,” he remarked. I feel terrible for him despite the way he fell, the way he waived while still being carried away as a precaution.
It doesn’t seem promising. After the game, he wasn’t in the locker room, but I’m not sure if he was taken to the hospital or given painkillers.I feel terrible for the child. It’s sad since he has been doing so well. I believe his knee since it appeared as though his leg bolted. It breaks our hearts that we shall miss him for a while.
