FOOTIE legend Wayne Rooney has been booted into third place in the Soccer Aid shirt auction – by a boyband heartthrob and a rising telly star.
The former England skipper’s signed shirt is currently sitting at £1,578, but that’s still miles behind the top two.

One Direction star Louis Tomlinson is topping the leaderboard with a whopping £5,364 bid for his England top – despite barely touching the ball on the pitch.
Coming in second is Bella Ramsey, the breakout star of The Last of Us and Game of Thrones, whose shirt has pulled in an impressive £1,731.
But it’s not just Rooney who’s struggling to get to the top in the footie world – Brazil legend Rivaldo’s shirt is number five, with a bid of £809.
The former Barcelona man is surprisingly beaten into fourth by Twitch streamer Morgan Burtwistle, better known online as AngryGinge.
Even more surprising, though, is the fact there’s no place in the top 10 for former Manchester City star Carlos Tevez.
Fans have been scrambling to snap up the signed shirts from this year’s charity clash, which raised £15.28million for UNICEF.
But Rooney’s spot behind Louis and Bella has raised a few eyebrows – especially considering he’s England’s all-time top scorer.
It just shows how fast the world of fame moves – especially when you step out of the limelight.

Louis has a cult-like following, and his fans are proving they’ll do anything to get their hands on his kit.
And Bella’s fanbase is booming after she has been smashing it on screen.
The auction is still live but with bids flooding in it looks like pop power and screen stardom are winning this match.
